okay that's a low blow,,, heehee. I am sure plenty of people know what cleats are. One thing I noticed , me having not ridden in a long time is that when u had the toe clips u can start pedaling lightly from a stop light even if u have not had your cleat push in yet, so in a sense they are better than clipless where u have to make sure u click in before u pedal with both feet if u have not clicked in yet u have to pump a few times with one leg. Another thing is the toe clips holds the top of your foot as u pull up on pedal, the clipless depends completely on the top of the shoe if u pull up on the pedal,,, so not to sure about the whole clipless craze...
