Bicycle shoes

[pjclarkesq]

Just got a new Tour Easy. In my first few cruises around the neighborhood I
had trouble keeping my feet on the pedals. Aha! Nothing slips past me! I
need different shoes. I'd prefer to avoid pedal clips. If anyone has any
suggestions for this novice bentist lay em on me.

Thanks,

Phil

I'm not a paid spokesmodel but Nashbar always has great shoe deals if they
have your size.

Try something like these that can be SPD or waffle stomper plain.

I still have a pair I bought 3 years ago. They are in great shape being thru
a lot of rain and stuff. I have a couple other shoes I prefer now but those
are great. If you fall down because of slipping off the pedals, you can kick
the crap out of whomever is laughing at you. Or if clipped in, you won't
break your foot :-)) I think you'd learn to like the SPD system, IMHO.

chill down.
