+1, Big John, that was needless to say it the way that he did. I have absolutely no need to look like a racer, never tried to fool anyone. The SPD-SL and correct shoes just plain work for me, and a lot of others, too. ride on what works best for you, don't waste time making judgmental statements.

Also, I tell people to pivot from the toe like you're killing a cockroach. That seems to give a better twist than "move your heel out."


Hmmm ... we don't have cockroaches in our neck of the woods. At least not the kind that you can step on. :)

Advocating flat pedals or toe clips is pointless since the OP already stated she wanted to go back to clipless. All you retro-grouches can now go back under your bridges to sulk.

They need to go over to the light and electronics forum.

OP: I need a new light, what kind of LED light should I get?

A: Don't get an LED light, just get a gas lantern.

Clipless pedals are here to stay, they're better for a long list of reasons that have already been covered in this thread.
