I just tried out my new road bike shoes for the first time (I've been using MTB shoes). I'm using the same pedals I used before (SPD's), but I know have problems with not being able to pedal at all when not clipped in (because of the smooth sole instead of treaded).
Anyone else have this problem and a solution to it?
I'm thinking about getting a stomp pad (a pad that's a sticker on one side, typically used for sticking on your snowboard), and then cutting the pad up to fit the bottom middle part of my shoe where the pedal hits when I'm not clipped in.
It's not that I ride not clipped in most of the time - however, when I approach stop signs and such I like to clip out a little before I get there, but this now seems dangerous with my new shoes.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated!
