If you ride SpeedPlay in unstable road condition, you are gonna slip-off while trying to engage. You see, if you fail to engage with SpeedPlay, you can't pedal reliably with em at all. If you are unlucky and you catch the pedals on your arches (on road clipless shoes) from stop, your shoes are gonna slide off and slam your groin into saddle ... and fall over.

(There is no competition with SpeedPlay if roads are reasonably nice. So no offense to SpeedPlay fans.)

If I were you, I would listen to Adriano although he sounds overly sarcastic.
