Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

When I first started riding I got some pretty nice starter shoes on Nike's clearance website. You can always find good deals on pedals on eBay, but if you're looking for something new Bike Nashbar has a great website with their own low-cost brand of stuff. In fact, I got a lot of stuff there when I first started because their own brand is pretty cheap and good quality. They have a super easy return policy too. Do you know what style of pedal you want?

You can probably find some shoes for under $70 (though it will be tough) but there's no way you're getting decent pedals with them too for $70.

I got shoes off Bonktown for about $25 shipped. Then I got some Nashbar pedals for about $40 shipped.
