I have been using the Shimano dual sided clipless pedals for a couple of years. First on a hybrid and now on a road bike. I typically keep the left foot clipped and leave right foot out. However, I forget that i am clipped in, in fact I plopped over twice in recent days. I am looking at flat pedals with pegs and five-ten shoes as an alternative. I like the idea of being clipped into the pedal, however I have lost my sense of confidence. I know that there is a debate between clipless and platform. I am not a long distance rider, more of a fitness rider. Are there others using platforms with their road bikes? How do you feel about platform pedals and what kind of pedals do you use?
