    My Rocket7's are arriving tomorrow!!

    I can't tell you how excited I am about my new road shoes coming - tomorrow. I ordered them Dec 6th from competitivecycling.com (because you can see the colors on the shoe if you custom color them). After all these weeks....they're almost here.

    Does anybody else have Rocket7 shoes? The guy that's advising/helping me with cycling has a pair and highly recommends them. They're pretty much the lightest shoe on the market and the fact that its also rotational weight, the lightness pays off. I've had problems finding shoes that fit my feet comfortably so I also thought that this was a good option.

    If anybody is interested in getting a pair from this company, I'll report back tomorrow and let yall know how they are!

    okay folks, they're finally here. i got them Tues in a 10 minute stop at home to collect all of my crap for a spin class at my bike shop. (we use our bikes and trainers and do real work ) i had the mechanic at the shop put some cleats on.

    my diagnosis? they're SUPER light. they're very comfortable. i did, however, have to move the cleats back so i'll ride today with that new position. i'll have to report back on that because it makes a whole world of a difference when your cleats are in the right spot (for me at least).

    more to come....
