[QUOTE="ken2116, post: 1063495, member: 94707"] We've done most of our bike touring on flat or rattrap pedals with toe clips and a loose strap, wearing molded soled hiking shoes - this configuration minimizes slipping off the pedals (especially a problem when wet) while allowing one to dismount quickly. For regular road riding and tours where I won't be stopping frequently I prefer shoes with recessed cleats (Shimano "AM5" model, chosen because they're wider than many). I like the Shimano M324SPD pedals which accept both cleats and regular shoes - their flat side has sufficient pointy bits to hold rubber soles. With this set up I can ride on the flat side when going slow or getting off frequently and clip in for longer sections of pure pedaling. After a few outings I found it easy to distinguish the sides by feel, but in a pinch one can pedal on either side until it's convenient to switch. Mountain biking pedals with their pointy bits hold rubber soled shoes well, too. [/QUOTE]
