We like to do family bike trips along trails in the woods behind our home and in some parks around here. The worst crashes I’ve taken have all been the result of clip-in shoes/pedals that kept me locked to the bike a split second too long.
Today, Pres Biden took a little tumble when he stopped to say hi to a few folks and could not get his foot out of the pedal contraption in time. The good news is he was not injured- he’s in great shape and got right back up. If I’m still pedaling along and absorbing the occasional tumble at Pres Biden’s age that will be fantastic.
So keep riding Joe, but get rid of those darn toe cages.
