Thank you - I had not thought of the cleats! I still have the pedals and shall try some new cleats - I like those pedals. I bought the SPDs which have the clipless on one side and regular on the other, thinking I would occasionally ride out with regular shoes.. I think I did it once in three years - and that just to try riding without my regular bike shoes. It turns out I HATE riding without clipless pedals!

Thanks - good info.
