Funny, with my MTB shoes and SPD pedals, clipping in is about the only thing I seem to do very well in at any race. If I do miss my cleat catches enough of the pedal to get going anyhow. I am sure that the extra grams are the reason I usually get spit out the back, but I always seem to be up there in the beggining as I pass a half dozen missed clipppers.

So why would I want to buy road shoes again?
