If you're not going for a PR, does it matter?

I rode exclusively on eggbeaters since they came out in '02 until a few years ago after a hip injury. (The reason I stopped wasn't float, it was the shock of unclipping that spring echoing through my leg...) Since then I've been riding just clips/straps, even on the occasional fixie day and soft-soled casual shoes (Chucks or Vans). If' you already have a decent spin and aren't going out to hammer competitively, the soft sole keeps you for over exerting and the clips/straps don't need to be cinched tight.
