I'm glad this thread popped back up...

I stopped by the closest LBS last week and the owner asked me if I could help them unload a shipment of bikes they were receiving. I rode my bike in so I had my cycling shoes on...specialized tahoe. There were 64 bikes and 16 boxes to unload. The bikes had to go upstairs to the storage room. I didn't even think about the fact that I had my cycling shoes on until I started breathing hard and sweating from carrying all those bikes up the stairs. I realized then that I had my cycling shoes on and was impressed that I was able to do this without any discomfort. I ended up noticing their weight towards the end of unloading the truck but it wasn't too bad. They are heavier than my new balance mr 790's which are extremely light.

Anyways, I just had to say something about how comfortable they are even when doing physical labor.
