I think Suzie has road shoes, not mountain bike shoes. I am trying to think of the difference between her and me, because I don't have any problems with clipping, unclipping, or pedaling unclipped, and it is the shoes and the pedals. I wear Pearl Izumi sport shoes, and the cleat is recessed, and there is lots of room on the shoe to pedal without clicking in. I wear this shoe so I can walk in it also, and this is because I am a rural cyclist, and if something happens to me I need to be able to walk however many miles. The pedals I have are Shimano SPD-M520.

Can anyone tell what type of shoe Suzie wears from the photo?
