I do have a pair of road shoes I could use here, but have questions about taking off the spd cleats and trying them instead. But I'm a little concerned about the road shoes slipping off the platforms.
Does anyone have any words of advice?

I also have dual TKR which is why my doctor advised me to ride with good flat soled street shoes and platform pedals so that there is little danger of twisting my new knees for any reason.
