    Make sure your shoe cleats are tight on the shoes.
    Pull the pedals and apply a light coating of grease, any kind really, on the threads. Tighten forcefully.(I can actually say that here without the bodybuilders ).
    I would also put on some chain lube where the cleat engages the pedal.

    That should do it unless there is something more serious, like the crankset bolts.
    Ride it, break it, fixit, ride it...

    hiya... weird... I had this same issue not long ago... had a odd clicking noise that started at the same time I got new shoes and moved my cleats onto them... I did everything I could think of only to find out that coincidentally, the bottom bracket had begun creaking at the same time... had the LBS clean and re-lube the bottom bracket and no more creak... go figure the two things happened at the same time... Murphy's law... yep, Murphy hates me!

    good luck with it...
    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".
