    I just ordered a pair of the Louis Garneau 0º Ergo Grip shoes from Performance. I've been eyeballing them for a while and the price was SO right! These things retail at most places for $200. Performance usually sells them for $180, but have them on sale/clearance for $160 minus an extra 20%. They have them in a 41, which should work for me. My 2 other pair of LGs are 40s, but all reviews suggest the need to size up a full size for these. So $128 before shipping.

    Reviews are mixed on them...some people find them to be warm down to really low temps, other people find them to not be warm much below freezing. I should hopefully have room for toe warmers between the inner shoe and neoprene shell, as well as heavier merino socks. Plus I am a wuss and likely won't do much riding if it's really cold -- that's the ideal time to lace up the running shoes.

    DH just found me a pair of Northwave winter mtb shoes that I can wear with my Frogs. They are in the UK; same as where I found my winter road shoes. The smallest size is 37, which is what I wear, but it said they run big. I'll take them and wear my thickest socks if I need to.
    I rode my Kuota the other day and wore my winter shoes; it's so much easier to just put them on and go instead of dealing with toe warmers, booties, and chemical heaters (I've done all 3 together for temps in the low 30s).

    I've got my one pair of Specialized Tahoes. Once I manage to get my hands on some road pedals, and after a trip to Cincinnati to try them on, I'll be buying a pair of Sidi road shoes. Winter shoes are still a problem, though.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    I got my Northwave Artics today. Will check them out tomorrow night when I ride at 4 PM.
    Frog cleats are already installed.
