This thread seems to have deviated from the title, but it's interesting anyway. I've ridden clipped in (mountain bike shoes) and found it comfortable. The mountain bike shoes had a stiff sole and the pedals were Shimano m545, which have a cage that offers great foot support. I did over 20,000 miles with this set up. But, I really want to be a flat pedal convert for distance stuff (I'm already a convert for commuting). Are there any randonneurs here that ride flats for the long rides?
