It is always funny that despite how long we ride, most of us, will fall or crash, not moving at high speeds, but those slow, starting and stopping. Well using PC's adds a new dimension to the need for caution. I have found the best way for me to start up is to select one foot (usually my left) and make a series of half pedal strokes to get started after stopping at an intersection. Moving at a slow speed and attempting to engage the foot into the pedal can be a challenge, and removes my focus from what is around me, thugs like traffic.
I try and start my pedal at 9 o'clock and pedal to 6, then pull back up to 9 a few times, off a stop at an intersection. I have found this gets me moving the quickest in the shortest amount of time.
