My feet were in horizontal plane while cycling so I’d say no upward or downward pressure was there to keep them in place. Anyway I just finally went out a few minutes ago and rode for about a mile and half with new toe straps in place and no problems whatsoever. So I’m feeling much safer in cycling again at 66 y/o. I want to do the Seattle To Portland again, it’s been a few years.
Thanks everyone for your sharing and input. It got these squeaky gears inside my head moving again.
