These cleats have 4,700 miles on them. They're done. Putting some new ones on today. I've outlined the cleat with a sharpie in hopes of getting the new one in place.
I'll miss these, we've been so many miles together.

Wow - you can replace them without guilt!
I always unclip on the Left, every time. Maybe it's my politics

Yep, I'm a lefty too.. BUT I also have to start with my left clipped in, so it's kind of a pain. I've tried to become one with unclipping on the right, but it just aint RIGHT!!
.... Sorry... Had to do that..

Interesting. It's suprising how many of you unclip your left first. I'dve thought you'd all be righties so you can use the kerb when you're stopped at stop signs and stop lights (and so cars don't ACCIDENTLY run over your feet as they take off from the lights either)
I unclip my left foot first because otherwise I'm leaning into the traffic on my commute. If I unclip my left I can rest it on the gutter/traffic islands/etc when I'm stopped at the lights.

I clip out/in on the right side. That's my dominant side. BUT I have been trying to learn to clip out on the left side, just in case I ever need to. It is amazingly difficult! I have to concentrate so much. And then I have to remember I clipped out on the left side and not lean over to the right, or embarrassing wipe-out occurs. Yep, I've done that. Fortunately, not in traffic.

I swing both ways.
I got handy stickers with my Look cleats to help get new ones in the right place. Mine have a few more miles to do first though...

Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.
