Bikes: I have a few

As far as I know no cycling shoe comes equipped with cleats. My everyday shoes for the road are a older pair of Shimano r088 for bad weather, a pair of Bontrager Classique for nice days and Giro Privateer shoe for mtb, gravel and especially touring. I like the Giro shoe mostly for it's comfort on and off the bike but it is SPD only. The Bontrager shoe is great on the bike, looks fantastic and like the Giro shoe it has laces so I can accommodate my widish feet easily. The Shimano shoe is the oldest of the group. I was not super comfortable at first but a few rides in and a couple good soakings in the rain they seemed to fit a bit better. FWIW I only put 5000-8000 miles in good years split between 5 or 6 different bikes.

I should note I have had a few foot injuries over the years and get a ganglion syst on the side of one foot from time to time. I have tried MANY other shoes over the years but these brands I know I will go back to if needed.
