Last month's Bicycling magazine had an article about how to properly fall. It was pretty interesting and I'm not sure I'd be able to resist the urge to brace with my outstretched arms. According to the article when your bike goes down you should tuck and roll to your side (and stay clipped in) as you roll tacross your back you should click out and push the bike away while you keep rolling. I hadn't heard the advice to stay clipped in before.
