Any recommendations?
Ok....I found the model #'s.
I'm using Shimano PD-M520 SPD pedals($60) with Shimano RT82 SPD Touring shoes($90). Prices in CDN $$.
The springs on the pedals are set Low for quick release and the shoes have enough sole so the cleats are recessed for walking. The shoes look like Road shoes without the bulky lugs and weight of MTB shoes.
