    try it on locally....

    Roxy - really. this is a great deal. But I understand the difficulty in buying on-line. Just find a local bike shop and try on a size 42. I wear anything from an 8-1/2 - 9-1/2 but I have a super narrow foot and I was swimming in these wide shoes, thus, I'm selling them. They are just a standard SIDI women's size 42 (the pink ribbon is women's).

    My plan to break into the clip system is to get a 2-sided pedal from Shimano. One side is just a flat pedal and the other has the clip. I know there will be lots of people who don't agree with this strategy, but lots of local women I know have used it successfully. That way, if I'm riding in a situation where I don't feel comfortable being clipped in, I just flip the pedal over. And on our local bike path which I know super well, I can clip in. Also for the climbing !

    That's my game plan! but try the shoes locally and let me know if you're interested.

    YEAH! I did it!

    I finally tried the clip-ins today and am amazed ! shocked !! and thrilled !!! how easy it was. geez. I got a Shimano double sided pedal with an SPD clip-in and set it on the easiest setting. It's like the clip has a magnet on it - it just pops in and pops out. I put this off for 2 years because I was a newbie biker put with my rides now topping 30 miles, it was time to get some bike shoes. I'm so glad I finally tried it and really want to encourage other fence sitters to jump in! http://forums.teamestrogen.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
