Tried lube as well.. The compounding problem is that I have a bad hip due to psoriatic arthritis. I have limited range of motion and diminished strength in one leg, and it's very easy for me to set off painful inflammation . After my attempts last night, I was hurting so badly I had to take a pain pill--which I HATE.

On top of clipping in. Once I finally got clipped in, my shoe got stuck! I just couldn't get out. I had to go ring the doorbell to have my hubby undo my shoe. It was hard for HIM to get the shoe loose. Getting stuck is what did me in with my hip, so there's big fear there now.

I'm going to go by LBS today and see if there's anything else we can do with the speedplays or if they can swap them out for looks. I do like how secure I felt once I clipped in, but I'm afraid of getting stuck again on the road with no one to help me get out.
