I did not know that the "Taki" ment something special on my shoes. This is however a classic example of multimedia cycling. Downhill MG-1 pedals, BMX shoes on a TT road bike being setup for Beach Road riding on vacation around lots of jaywalking tourists........................ and it all comes together just right for the occasion.

Who said you couldn't cross forum lines.
