Thanks for posting this, Irulan.

I'm still new to a lot of the bike lingo and I haven't fully read that manifesto yet, but... when you say "flat/flat" do you mean a flat pedal and a flat shoe? And if you mean flat shoe, do you mean a sticky shoe?

I have 12 miles logged on my new road bike with the pedals it came with and my awesome pink Chucks. However, my foot slide around a couple of times, so I'm looking to change my set up without going clipless - I'm just too clumsy for that.
