If you decide to take your riding to the utilitarian level where your walking around and doing errands get some touring specific shoes. In addtion get the thinnest and most narrow cleats you can find and you'll avoid clicking on hard surfaces. Also, slipping on stairs. It only takes once(been there, done that). Anyway, congrats on making the jump. I had the same thought when I finally did. Now about clipless and fixed gear...
