I've been using good ol' Shimano 520 SPDs...and having a real bugger of a time getting clipped back in. No way can I even think about trying to do a rolling start. Even at a complete stop I struggle just to get re-clipped-in.

Part of this is certainly because I am a noob--and a particularly uncoordinated noob, at that--but I wonder if there are pedal systems out there that are a little easier to catch. I frequently find that I slip all over trying to get the cleat where it belongs, or I will *think* I'm clipped-in, only to discover that I'm not.

I lose SO much time on mounts and dismounts, as is. I'm reasonably speedy when I'm on the flats, but every obstacle/barrier slows me down as slower riders zip by me.
