Not long, but I'm very fast getting into my clipless. Never have to look, and 99% of the time I hit the engagement on the first try and first stroke. Maybe I'm just impatient. :-) It is a little ironic how important the shoes are to happy clip-free riding. You still have to match shoe to pedal, to some extent. > Actually, that's part of my problem. I ride in sandals (always have, even with the frogs -- rode Shimano SPD sandals) and grabbing the rough pedal with my toe requires a bit more caution. :-) Thanks for the input! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
