Cleat Placement/Foot Numbness
The problem is with my right foot, it goes numb after riding about 50+ miles. If I stop and walk a little, problem solved, no more numbness. It may or may not come back. I have moved my cleat around to several spots on my shoe, with no luck. I have also loosened my shoe straps as the ride progresses to allow for swelling. What makes this a strange problem is that it only does it when I use my road shoes. If I trade my speed plays, and use my SPD pedals with my sandals, no problems. Is my foot swelling to much for my road shoes? Do my sandals stretch enough for the sweeling? Any tips or suggestions? What type of road shoe would you suggest?
Thanks in advance
Dave

I have the same exact problem, only it's my left foot and I start to get numbness after about 15-20 miles. I never had a problem before I started using the clipless pedals. I really have no clue what it is either and it's really starting to bother me!
