I have some specialised atb shoes at the moment with eggbeaters but I can sometimes feel them move about a bit like the connection isn't that great so I really wanted to get some better pedals, and road shoes seem the way to go as the connection is so much more intense. I never put a foot down so being able to release quickly is not a problem but I don't want to be unable to walk if I need to. I think I will give the lake's a go, now to find a pedal.
