Hi all,
I just changed to SPD pedals (the mountain bike ones) from flat pedals. Fell about 6 times trying to learn how to use it. Any suggestions on how to get better at clipping in and out?

You can make it a bit easier by winding the spring on the pedals right out so that clipping out is really easy. Then when you build a bit of confidence you can progressively tighten the spring to the point you are comfortable.
Other than that it is just practice and using some forethought by unclipping before you need to and maintaining awareness that you are clipped in.
It seems hard now, but in no time it will be totally automatic and natural, hang in there!
Yeah just start out with loose clips…Or use TIME pedals instead!
