Those Sidi touring shoes Riv used to sell. When I resurrected my old Peugeot PX-10 as a single-speed I tried the retentionless pedal thing with MKS touring style (but narrower) that I tried riding w. trail runners, my Sidis, but without toe-clips and straps...I know...a bike you can hop on and ride with any shoe sounds like a great idea, but back on went the toe clips and straps. I just didn't feel right. What can I say?
