something i`ve been thinking about lately - but have no idea is as follows :
if your clipped into your spd's or other system. and you either crash into something or the bike slides from under you. I`m guessing you have very little chance of unclipping in time, which means you stay attached to the bike and will probably incurr more injuries.
however having read LA's 2 books - he documents several high speed accidents, in which he flies over the handle bars - how is this so ? do the pro's use a different system or are they clipped in very loosely ?
cheers
