Racman, if it's acknowledgement you crave: get a dog  

Grieve, Swissvan, you could publish that advice and make money off it!

EB, mine ran away when I started thinking about buying a Shimano Groupset!!!

[slowjoe]

racman, u were getting a bit technical there, the quick and dirty check would be to make sure the pedals are attached to the bike and the cleets to ur shoez, once ur ready to ride, make sure the cleets attach to the pedals ... fool proof!

[racman]

Thx slowjoe, never got around to mention:

 

1)Hot Tip#2 - make sure the pedals are attached to your bike before following any of the aforementioned steps.

 

(I will amend this and credit you for the tip in my new book - The Essential Cycling Guide - Hot Tips that really work!)

[slowjoe]

Come on barrykm - I also gave you valuable advice!!!

..OK..here's one for you as well..  

[Sammajoor]

I once used a technique called the reverse peddle technique... try tying your peddles to your feet and taping your shoes to your crank.

 The problem I found using this technique is that as my peddles turned my ankles got very twisted and once I was even thrown over my handlebars.

 

Sometimes common sense prevails - other times not.

Maybe you should take up a less complicated hobby like stamp collecting. Just remeber to lick the side without the picture.
