hot spots?

Thankyou for taking the time to reply.

Tomgrrl, you sound like you have a different kind of pain? I think I know which one you are talking about. let me know if i'm wrong. it's more of a shooting pain, and only after super long rides, or harder rides.

this one.. compare to a cast iron skillet, heated to high heat, and an "OK" oven mitt. if you hold it long enough, the heat seeps through the mit and it's HOT! that's exactly what i feel from the pedals.

oh, and both feet. the shooting pain is either or, usually right foot. this is both feet equally.

hmmm....I think people use the term "hot spots" in reference to foot pain while cycling....in my case the pain wasn't shooting, more a burning but not "hot" to the touch or anything....I used to get the pain in both feet often while riding longer distances until I took the plunge and bought the Sidi shoes....they were expensive, but worth it. The pain I felt today was reminiscent of the pain I used to feel with my old shoes....

At any rate, good luck with fixing the problem.....it's no fun to have one's feet hurt, regardless of the cause!

You could try moving your cleats back a little bit.
