Got to gripe for just a minute about the dude at the LBS. You know it is hard enough to be over forty, starting a new sport without some young dude sounding like it is a pain to deal with someone of my age and gender!!

So am I - but my boss doesn't really care what I do as long as I "look" busy and chatting with ya'll here - sure does make me look busy!! As for your pedals - I'm with Spazz and SK on this, good call Sadie. I had forgotten about those old locking pedal/strap combos!.....I think I even used them without the straps!
and Tracyc - find someone else at your LBS that treats you better! I know what you mean - I got one that tries to impress me with his great knowledge and ability every time I go there and a young kid that takes very good care of me! It's gotten to the point, I'll call and see whos working today before I take my bike in! LOL
