This trail owns me ! (For Now)

[Zipp2001]

Well this one trail has owned me so far this year. I've made it going the opposite direction without putting a foot down. But just can't seem to make it the whole way in this direction without putting a foot down. This was my last shot at it with flats for pedals and will be making a run at it with my new spd pedals soon. Just have to get the past negative runs out of my head and hit it hard.

Well if you get SPD's getting your foot out for sudden low speed off balance moments is tricky, so you'll have to make it. Don't ask me how I know this.

That's why I always use the minimum release tension that I can get away with (i.e. without accidentally unclipping).

I like a challenge and I'm running the spd at there lightest release setting. It's not like I'm new to clip-less pedals, I've had them on my road bikes since they first came out.
