I hate to tell you but I don't clip in on the mountain bike and what you discripe is one of the reasons. A member of my team uses SPD's but has never related a problem. I guess the trick is to never take your feet off the pedals. Sorry I can't help you with it. Enjoy that 'training race'.
I'm taking my 14 year old son out on his first real mtb this weekend. He is pretty athletic and very coordinated so I expect he will be dragging me down the trails before long.
