When I first got toeclips some years back, I really liked them compared to plain platform pedals. I accepted the extra time needed to get my foot in the clip.

I just rode with toeclips again tonight after more than a year of clipless.

Man, I hate toeclips now. It's harder to flip it around and get wedged in, and if it's not, it drags on the pavement on every downstroke.

Screw it. I'll take plain platforms or clipless (which can also be had in fat platform styles). No more toeclips for me.
