    Do you do a lot of climbing?.......I've noticed I start to have problems with my feet when I'm doing a lot of climbing - or at the end of a long ride where I may be balancing more weight on my feet than using my core.

    I have both: MTB and Road shoes. I wear the MTB shoes on my road bikes when I commute to work coz - as Denise said- they're easier to walk in. I wear my road shoes for all my long rides where I'm not going to stop for any length of time and I'm not planning on walking very much.

    I believe it was Bike Goddess recommended insoles for my shoes - which they sell at REI but I haven't had a chance to pick some up and try them yet. I did have to move my cleats around - don't be surprised if your cleats aren't the same on each foot - my left foot the cleat needed to be on the inside more, my right - the outside. Play with your cleats some and see if that helps too.


    Thanks Denise - thems the ones!

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
