This happens even when the bike is at right angles to the ground (i.e. not turning). I'd rather not have toe straps, any ideas?

Any ideas greatly appreciated!
When are you riding with them with your feet not engaged?

To be honest, that little scrape sound is just good incentive to get my feet into the clips.

I rarely ever tighten my straps onto my feet. I do like the feeling of a tight strap from time to time- but 98% of the time (if not more) I don't tighten the straps, it's just rotate pedal, insert foot and go.
