My kids prefer them as well!

Yep, Adidas shoes are pretty good for cycling. I have the Adidas Dragons, which are somewhat similar to the Sambas. Much better than the flimsy slip-ons that I had before.
I took these photos about an hour ago:

You have good taste Holiday
I have gone through 3 pairs this past year, moved on to my 4th pair (the grey authentics) Toe clips eat my Vans for breakfast.
Vans by (cobrabyte), on Flickr
I get about 3 months out of the slip-ons, the black 'vegan old skool' pair lasted about 6 months due to the doubled up toe and added stitching. I hated giving up on that pair, great sneakers for sure.

nice! i've been riding my MTB beater/commuter with those big ol' bear trap pedals with no toe clips. that works out pretty well. I used those shorty shorty toe clips that VO sells on another bike and thats ok too, but any clips kinda get on my nerves after a while.
sometimes i wear Sanuk's as well.

I decided to take the plunge and forgo the classic "garage door" shots by pressing into service my brand-new retaining wall as my new "bike backdrop".

This was one the way home from riding to my Wife's place of work. I was late getting there, so I didn't have time for any ride shots.

Some photos of Superstition and Four Peaks mountain ranges dusted white and storm still ongoing.

Chrome Bags makes good cycling shoes. They are very stiff for cycling and a couple of their shoes have mounts for clips. I got a free pair last year when they had a promotion and gave free shoes for sending in old shoes. They are great for cycling, but not real inexpensive.

This is hands-down the best landscape photograph I have ever seen here on BF. Man, I never thought I'd say this, but I miss Arizona!
Thanks a million for sharing, WNG
