I didn't think about stopping, just jammed my foot back under the toe clip held in place by the unbroken single strap and engaged the cleat. I chased hard and came about 6 inches away from moving into the semi's. I guess I could have asked for a re-ride, but it never even occurred to me. Carleton is right, know the rules. I don't know if I would have been given a re-ride, but it never hurts to ask!
