Thanks for the advice, but clipping in on a "regular" ride has not been a problem. My issues come up when I have to ride hard and fast from the get-go... I don't have time to look for my pedal. I ride on smaller streets but have to cross some major highway intersections that only give me a green light for a few seconds (lame urban planners only put crosswalk lights on one side of the street, usually the side I'm NOT on.) Basically, I have to sprint from a standing start and jet through 8 lanes or risk getting hit by some dodo-brain going 65mph. Similarly, when I have to start on a significant incline, I have to start spinning immediately and hate fumbling for my pedal.

Almost all of my cyclist friends (including my coach) prefer the dual-sided Speedplays so I will probably switch over.
