Nice one, Skully... So RPM wasn't born wearing a pair of Sidis after all? ;]

Think that place on BGR is long gone...

Yeah, I nearly drew attention to that fact, then thought better of baiting the forum's best grumpy old git.

oops

re: hippest trainer shop in town: You sure?! I am surprised.

never worn sidis, they don't work with spd-r which means they are for the hipsters.

now the popularity of learner pedals has reached critical mass, there are loads of trainers which work well with them.

PS: I still have a pair of learner pedals, I keep them in case I need to ride somewhere very close and can't be bothered changing shoes.

Apologuise for bumping this ancient thread but Im looking around for some less casual shoes for riding in with clips and straps. From what Ive seen almost all road shoes are made for cleats. Riding with vans and full lycra does look a bit wrong. I spotted this yesterday: http://www.the5thfloor.co.uk/2012/09/11/podium-shoes/

Looks interesting?

I also saw the vittoria 76 cycling shoes which look quite 'vintage'. http://bikesnobnyc.blogspot.com.au/2009/04/bsnyc-product-review-vittoria-1976.html
Basically what Im after is some decent looking road shoes with a rubber base. The only other option from what I can find is an MTB shoe with chunky grips which is abit overkill and probably too grippy if I need to take my foot out of the straps.

Does anyway know anything which might fit the bill?

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
