Funny they don't mention pedals at all. Did he switch to flats or did he ride Birkenstocks on SDPs?

Remember Shimano SPD sandals? A friend used them for a while.

A forum member who was a cat 1 forgot his shoes at some race and rode in penny loafers on clipless pedals. I think he got third in the race.
