Thanks, I will be getting some Mt. bike shoes (high top) for bad ankle support. I don't do much sprinting but when I get to that point I will get road shoes and pedals. Again, Thanks to all of you for the input on this and other matters here in this forum.
By the way NEVER and I mean NEVER cut off a cast on you broken ankle to go to the beach when your 21 years old...........It will suck when your 30+.
