I'm ashamed to admit I was conned.

Maybe someone could make some big ol' clodhoppers with a Look cleat
surrounded by a wide margin of rubber lugs. Sort of like a logger
boot with the middle of the forefoot carved away for the goofy Look
cleat.
That would be racy, yet practical. Wait... I guess "racy" really
means _impractical_, doesn't it? I mean, that's all that so-called
race equipment really has in common, right?
Impractical for everything except racy bike riding. Is there any other
kind?
BTW, I use MTB shoes with SPD cleats when I go MTBing or shopping. I
can walk free and easy with the cleat well surrounded by rubber, yet
still ride bike with the same connected feeling as I get from my roadie
shoes and look keo carbon pedals!
JS.
