[MENTION=343086]crazyravr[/MENTION], saying one doesn't need clipless is as silly as saying one needs them. Why can't we just use what we prefer? I like riding with cleats a whole lot better than without. I would not say anyone needs them. Without cleats, I place my feet on the pedals in a position that creates nerve pressure in my feet. And getting in and out is no trouble for me in stop and go traffic. I can do it rapidly without looking, as I have tons of practice. Pedal and let pedal.
