Yep! this is a right of passage of sorts for new on clipless systems.

I got clipless and was riding with my son. He stops just for random anything so I should have known better. I was following him and he stopped to blow the fluff off a dandelion. I couldn't unclip and fell over. My then 6 year old son thought it was funny as H$LL! for the next year he would stop short and see if I would fall, it was a game. I got REALLY good on clipless pedals really fast. Probably a great training for me.

He still laughs about it to this day!
