If you don't feel it, try rolling the bike an inch or two while snicking downward just to be safe and make sure you're in 1st. I do this sometimes at red lights if I didn't feel the clunk or if I didn't get it all the way down to 1st before having to stop.
I hope this help. Congrats! I teach at an elementary school (well, until this year anyway), and I used to ride my bike to work all the time. The kids loved it! :-)

I figured it was "operator error" and not mechanical.. The whole downshifting experience is still tricky to me.. but I'm glad I found out what I was doing wrong. Your input is helpful!
