After riding clipless for years, it finally happened. I couldn't get unclipped and fell over. Was it after my first 100k or at an intersection? Nope, it was in my driveway about 5 seconds after clipping in at the start. Thankfully, the only injury was a skinned knee. I feel like a real cyclist now.

Welcome to the club and hello from your neighbor to the West!
64 miles! That’s amazing! I think the most I’ve ever done in one day is about 22 miles lol 😂
That route looks planned on Etch a Sketch
Yeah, I think I’ve fallen like three times clipless. Once in my yard, once stopping at traffic lights and once actually riding.
Congrats on your achievement. Mostly your mental fortitude, looks like you went in a straight line for like 15-20k, turned left for 5 k, then did another straight 15-20k. Like straight straight. I already get bored or demoralized if my Wahoo says next directions in 4k. And usually I can’t see ahead like you probably could.
Nice ride!
Also, hello fellow Hoosier! 🏁🏎️
I fell and fractured my right elbow. Because my leg tried to pull instead of slide out of the pedal
