+1 on the eggbeater pedals. I have them on my bike, as well. I think another plus about them is that someone without cleats will have a hard time riding your bike away (not that that stops them from putting it in the back of a truck...but anyway).

Make sure you read the directions carefully and install your cleats for the easy clip-out option. Mine un-clip like butter! Really smooth, but they don't unclip when you don't want them to. I rode my old hybrid with spd pedals last week and really had a heck of a time with them. Glad to get back to my eggbeaters!
