Which is why I wear mtb shoes. I had a pair of road shoes with Speedplays and when I had come to a stop, I put my foot down and did a Chinese split. Nope, not pretty.

I have Specialized mtb pro carbon soled shoes that rival the stiffness of a road shoe. And unlike road shoes, I can hike in them should I have a mechanical failure out in the boondocks.
