We cycled to Lacock and up Bowden Hill and stopped for a nice pint of cider (me), Guinness (son) before cycling back home again for tea.
When I returned I fitted the new pedals to the Dawes and set up the cleats on the shoes. I had a little practise at getting the shoes hooked up and more importantly un-hooked. They seem OK ;-)
The heel twist to unlock, Is positive but not awkward ;-) The cleats allow the foot to rock which is nice as the toe clips didn't allow any foot swivel at all.
I will see more on the first real ride with them on Saturday but the first impressions are good!.
Here's some photies of pedals n cleats n things...
