Shoe me!!

[RolliePollie]

After experiencing foot agony on my 50 mile ride today, I'm ready to give up on my PI shoes. Performance Bike has last year's Sidi Zetas on sale so I think I'll just order a pair and see if they fit. Here is a question though...on all the pictures I can find of the sole of the Zeta's, there is a red thing covering the left-hand set of screw holes. My cleats fit the 2-hole pattern. Does anyone know what the red thing is and if there are screw holes underneath?

Here's a picture of what I'm talking about:

Sara, I can only imagine that the red plastic bit is sort of packing material, or the inserts you leave there if your cleats use the outside four holes. They've simply removed one so you can see the screw holes that the plastic bits hide.

I guess I get to join the cycling shoe party too. My very first pair of shoes just arrived today. I got a pair of Pearl Izumi flow mountain bike style shoe. I took a chance and ordered them on line without having tried on a similar shoe first but luckily, they fit great! Now to seriously start thinking about what kind of pedals to get although I am leaning towards the speedplay.

Now if the weather would just break so I can get out there and ride. I don't mind heat but the humidity levels here in CT have been through the roof. I just do not handle humidity well!
