Shoe suggestions - BMX pedals

[Catrin]

For what it's worth: ropers (cowboy boots with lower and broader heels) work really well with BMX pedals. The shanks on the boots do a lovely job of supporting your foot, kinda like the "crabon fribe" road shoes. Ropers tend to have rubber soles (since they are designed along the lines of folks leaping off of horses and running to the critter they've roped) and mine grip the BMX pedals on my bikes just great.

And they look really good with a miniskirt on the bike! (the miniskirt is on the rider, not on the bike)

Cool, I will keep this in mind! I think the 5-10s would have been fine, just a little concern about the reviews from those who said they could pull up on the pedal with them - generally a good thing if you don't have a cranky hamstring

I really like the looks of the shoes that Indy mentioned, and will keep these in mind should the hiking shoes not work. You have my imagination going though with what I could wear with ropers on the bike
