    Moving the cleat back so that the ball of the foot (measured at the first metatarsal joint) is a few (maybe 5, depending on your foot size) millimeters *in front* of the pedal axle ought to help ball of the foot pain.

    I went with the green figuring I could add the arch support part cause they had better overall arch support. The cleat is moved back, just didn't get to try it yesterday.

    BTW, they have a 60 day guarantee, so even if they are well-used, you can take them back. The guy at checkout, put my name in the system so I could bring them back if I don't like them, even if they are totally grungy.

    Finally got to ride this evening with my moved cleat and my Superfeet. Felt much better. My problem foot felt good, but even my right foot felt better. I only got in 18 miles before I ran out of daylight, but it was a big improvement.

    Thanks everybody.
