I tried clipless after many years of using toe-clips and straps. I've gone back to toe-clips. That's because with clipless I fell over a number of times with the pedals in the wrong position for ME to unclip. When I ride with toe-clips I usually have the straps loose enough that i can slip my foot out WHEN I WANT TO. Also, with toe-clips I can wear very nearly any shoe when touring.

Different pedals for different people's wants and/or needs.

Cheers
