Ok...here goes. The Candy Cs arrived today and are now on the bike. Cleats are mounted and I have taken a short spin around the block - no fall yet - of course, I didn't have my helmet on so I was extra careful.

Question regarding the position of the cleats: Should I leave them a bit loose so my foot can find what is comfortable and then stop and tighten up after several hundred feet? Or should I just crank those bad boys down and deal the with the position?
