I ride Looks and find I often trouble clipping in but I can ride on the pedal for a short time until I can get to a comfortable area to flip them or make sure they are engaged. Not ideal and not fast but I don't race so who cares? I like the way my foot feels once clipped in them so I trade that I am not coordinated and no pedal will be an easy clip for me.

With the amount of foot issues I have had I am not sure I would give up the stiff sole to go to mountain shoes so I deal with the annoyances of road shoes. Also I have very narrow feet and am not keen on replacing my road shoes with some top of the line Sidi mountain shoes which would be the only ones to fit my feet and be relatively stiff soled.
