I got my sandals! You should've seen my face when I figured out that I needed to put cleats in them...and then when I remembered that I have a spare pair of cleats!Tonight I managed to pry off the rubber cover (harder than it looks), and put on the cleats. Unfortunately, it's 41 degrees and raining here, so I won't be wearing them on the bike just yet. They feel good just walking around the house though. Thanks again for your help, Nanci.

That was lucky you had cleats! I had a spare set too that I found when I found all the stuff when I was searching for my shock pump. Found a brand new set of cleats, a brand new pair of gel gloves, and a brand new set of XT skewers (that I can really use on my spare MTB, since one of its skewer's springs got killed, and it has crap skewers, anyway).
It _is_ hard to get the rubber off the sandals, I was sure I was going to stab myself. Usually it's not that bad.
I'm wearing mine on a sunny/85F 200k tomorrow. Maybe I'll even get to take my socks off! It's supposed to be 60 when I start!***********

I know, I am famous for stabbing or cutting my own hands while doing simple tasks around the house. Since I USE my hands to deliver babies and do pap smears and stuff, and wash them about 5,000 times a day, this is a bit of a problem!

Have a great time on the ride. It is so cold and gross here, you can't even believe it. And I've lived here, or further north, all my life. ARGH! L.Run like a dachshund! Ride like a superhero! Swim like a three-legged cat!

YEEEHAAA!!!
i'm finally getting my pair on Friday! The downside is that it's now below 10 degrees celcius here and it will rain as well on Friday..
Oh well, I'll just wear them inside then

Someone told me to make sure to put sunscreen on my feet, even though all I ever wear is sandals or barefoot. Boy, I should have listened...
