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

Bike shims

I've been having some pain on the outside of my left foot near my 5th metatarsal. I was thinking of buying some shims to even my foot out. I'm looking at the specialized are there any other options?

For a super-cheap and finely adjustable alternative, consider star lock washers between sole of shoe and cleat to cant the cleat in the desired direction.
