Platform Pedals -- what to buy????

[kajero]

I don't want to go clipless or clip. I am apprehensive. As well as riding numerous miles by myself, I also ride with my SO who stops and starts very suddenly, or he will simply move on the trail funny. Please do not tell me not to ride with him. I don't have much choice; he is 82 years old and wants to go riding with me. I don't want him to ride alone. I have explained to him many times about trail etiquette and road rules. He says, "I am not hurting anything." At least I get him to move off the trail now when he stops! (With a lot of yelling, though)

I have a road bike and want to use plain platform pedals. Does anyone have any opinions? I road this morning with a group and because the roads were wet from the rain, my feet kept slipping off the pedals. it was nothing I couldn't control but it was so annoying. I couldn't go as fast because this.

The pedals I am considering are below: I know they are for mountain bikes, but I don't know what else to get.
