But really shoe changes don't take long.
It is not a justifiable reason to oppose clipless.
Edit: I would probably spend more time ensuring my laces are not in the chainline if I wore regular shoes.
Oh, great might priest of clipless! How I have longed to find a priest of the one and true faith of olden times! I have many question of ask of ye, thy bearer of great knowledge of the great god of clipless riding!
1. Is it acceptable to accept employment at place where one is now allowed to wear clipless shoes during working hours?
2. Some claim, perhaps heretically, that a 5 year old child who is just learning to ride is to young for clipless. What doth they almighty clipless god say on such matters?
3. I have twice broken my arm while wearing they almighty road cleats in thy shower. Will this increase my odds of getting into thy great clipless heaven, or must I do more?
4. My wife continues to be upset that I insist that I shall not remove my clipless shoes when sleeping, or doing other husbandly duties. Will divorcing her suffice, or must I burn her at the stake?
I humbly ask for your great forgiveness and absolvsion of my sins for my earlier remarks, suggesting that there was any justifiable reason to oppose wearing clipless at any time.
