I put shoe clips all the way forward and went for a ride today and while that toe overlap is still there, it is not that bad. Of course riding in town on side streets and some trails not really made for biking above 16km/h, you have to go slow and make lots of turns all the time, but it is better with the shoe clips moved all the way forward and I am OK with it too.
Those town side streets that are acceptable driving a car are so rough on a bike with narrow 23 tires @90psi, way too many jolting joints and little holes, never mind sewer covers.
BTW my new Shimano SPD pedals don't spin free so that on many occasions I need to flip them right side up before clipping in, maybe in time they will loosen up?
