A mere 16 km again on my 3rd day out on my conversion. Today I went clipless. I felt some serious apprehension at first as I couldn't causally lift my feet off the pedal, but in time I found that I was becoming more aware of the interaction between my legs/feet and my hands on the bar. I was able to attempt some quick, tight turns without panic, and certainly found better climbing.
I didn't attempt "hands free", but I also discovered that riding with one hand was nearly effortless.
All in all I'm beginning to come to terms with, and more comfortable with, the idiosyncrasies of this bike. It's a true joy to ride.
