Crash might be over playing it but as predicted, managed to fall over at a junction when I took my foot off the left pedal and fell the other way! Luckily mate never had camera to hand so got up before he could get a photo :-)

This isn't a good sign.
Clearly you shouldn't be allowed out on your own, or even with supervision it seems. |  |

It's a good media angle though.
He battled on through his injuries carrying the scars etc. etc. |  |

I was thinking carers, but yes stabilisers would be good too. | |

Have you tried a bottle of wine before going out? You may as well by the sounds of it  |  |

So today I headed to Tiptree to do a 34 miler to Danbury and climb Essex's biggest cycle climb en route. This run involves a few tasty (for Essex) climbs, a few narrow bridges (always fun) some narrow lanes (with tractors) so quite a few opportunities to fall off, especially if tired and needing to make a quick stop/unclip.
I fell off at the first T junction about 100 yards from where we started. Numpty. | |

You're a whole load fitter than I am pal and I applaud what you're doing.
But you do need to stay alive if you can.
Are the stirrup things a good idea? | |

They defo give you some oomph, whilst making a low speed topple more likely. But we are hardcore us cyclists, cant get to John O Groats without a scrape or two.
Tbf my other tumble was nothing to do with pedals, just hit gravel when flying round a bend racing my mate, as you do :-) | |
