well, the bike shop called, my shoes are in to try. I was only able to try on the 39.5, they didn't have any 40's, and I am fussy (bunions-after reading this post I am concerned, but glad I am trying on the 40's too) . I have to wait until tomorrow to go to the shop, its 2 hours one way and they are open late tomorrow night. The only bad part is that DH will probably go with me. HE has NO idea how much these shoes cost and how much the pedals I want also cost..oh my god..he is going to die. (life insurance policy=shoes/pedals for remainder of life..hhhmmmm ). I can see the eyes roll back and head striking the carpeted floor now...but I HAVE TO HAVE THOSE SHOES......this addiction is soooooo...bad..
