  • 00m
Comments:

This was horrible! When I took my foot out of my shoes I let one fall down and the shoe was dragging on the pavement!! Slowed me down quite a bit, but I finally managed to get my foot onto of the shoe eventually. I slowed down quite a bit before jumping off my bike and I did not rack my bike well. It kept on falling!! I rushed that way too much! Also I forgot to take my helmet off, but luckily a lady noticed and she took it back to my spot for me! What a nice person...
What would you do differently?:

Practice this whole transition a lot more.
