Mike: I saw Addidas Samba Millenium indoor soccer shoes recommended here, and tried a pair. I like them a lot for riding. WIth Grip Kings (MKS Lambdas) no strap is needed for efficient comfortable pedaling. With MKS Sylvan Touring, I prefer Power Grips. I do pull up (with hip flexors) when using the straps, but few people do much on the up stroke no matter what.

So I'm thinking I'll use my Grip King pedals for my upcoming tour. I'm curious what people like for "pedaling free". I went bike camping last night, 120 miles roundtrip so I got a good idea about if this will work. For the most part the shoes I'm using now, old style Vans, are fine although I did develop a bit of a hot spot. I'm thinking a new pair of shoes will rectify the situation and I may just go with Vans again but I'm curious what others are using. Also, I did the ride in MUSA shorts and an REI SS button front shirt and this also worked well. I just don't see the need or sense of riding in bibs and clipless pedals for this tour.
