I have decided for distance (rides over 30 miles) I like my road shoes better, stiffer and tighter, my feet just feel better in them - I'll put up with the mess at the rest stops.

But I must say I love how much easier the mtn bike shoes clip in and out and for walking - they will be my shoe of choice when I am in town (and did I mention I got the mtn bike shoes for 10 bucks on clearance - normally $99 - only pair left from last season and they just happened to be my size
