I've always cycled a lot and never use modern clipless pedals....my shins are pretty much always scabby and have plenty of scars and gouges....hurts like fuck for about 30 seconds when you do it but I'm pretty good at suppressing that pain after 40 odd years of dealing with it!

My fucking god yes.

I restore vintage bikes- you know, fellow geezers who want to give their grandkids something nice that they had when they were that age- and so on. Or just to hang on the wall.

Pedal bite. And yes many a time. My shins dont grow hair anymore because of all the scar tissue.

No, but I stabbed myself on the chainring when the chain broke on an incline. Those things are sharp and easily punched through to the muscle. I still (after twenty years) have a "dotted line" on my right calf........
