For those of you considering clipless, let me tell you how it is:

The day you start using clipless, you will probably be disappointed that you did not gain 2 mph (just like you were when you got those new wheels). But....

After riding only a thousand miles clipless, try going back to platforms.

- That is when it becomes immediately and unequivocably obvious that clipless gives you more power.
- That is when you know you made the right choice.
- That is when you know that all the peeps who said clipless isn't any better were plum outta their gourds.
- That is when you can author awesome posts like this.
