I was having some hot-spot issues with SPDs, and tried moving the cleats all the way back (I consider this Machka's advice
). There's a little bit of pressure there still, but it's a big improvement. Might need to get larger shoes and put my custom inserts in this spring. (current shoes are too tight for this).
