I had a scary moment a few days ago. My lace came undone on my left shoe and somehow managed to wrap itself around the pedal axle. As I pedaled forwards it tightened up until I physically couldn't turn the pedals anymore.
What made it worse was I was on a main road turning right on a roundabout at the time, surrounding by rush hour traffic.
I managed to get myself off the island, and to safety by repeatedly pedaling forwards 1 turn then backwards 1 turn (to unwind the lace).
Needless to say, I double check the laces every time out now!
