    So I switched pedals on my bike today from tiny racing clipless perals to nice big platforms so I can wear my boots. Not realising of course how much larger they are on my ride today I leaned far in to a right hand turn and struck pedal, wheel, and ate apple basically.

      @awl wait, you leaned so far the pedal scraped the ground?

            @rarity eh. No worse for wear. Either the bike or myself. Just I need to remember if leaning...pedal up.

              @awl maybe you should upgrade your bike to larger wheels→ will get you higher ;-) OTOH maybe those "platforms" are just too large for a bike

                @mcscx well the platforms are big but I just need to not lean in to turns so aggressively.
