Just make sure the clip isn't too tight that it is too hard to unclip. One of the first times I riding with my clipless pedals I rolled into town and came to a stoplight and stop. Could not get my foot loose and fell right over on my side. So then I was laying on the ground with people staring at me and my feet were still stuck, clipped into the pedal. you may want ot practice clipping first.
