Had been riding crappy toe cage pedals for awhile, doctors orders. But was waiting on new shoes and pedals to come in. Took them on the maiden voyage today and loving both. No work, but commuted around doing errands, the shoes walk quite nicely for being geared towards performance MTB type stuff. The tread is quite asphalt/linoleum friendly, and the cleats don't click most of the time, and when they do it's very faint. Also, I had only ridden CB pedals with my road SIDIs which also had two bolts, and I wasn't a huge fan, but with actual MTB shoes and getting the tread to interface on the cage of the pedal correctly gives a completely different feeling, like a whole new pedal. Absolutely loving the combo.

oh, and I got a light buzz from a honda today, nothing too bad. Otherwise it was mostly accomodating drivers, even in the horrible holiday shopping center rush.

edit: here's what the shoe looks like
