  1. Hello all

    I have a 2004 Trek 1000 road bike with Shimano PD-M540 MTB-style clipless
    pedals and Shimano SH-MO38 MTB-style shoes (the ones you can use for
    walking).

    I have noticed that most "serious" road/racing bicycle riders use the
    racing-style clipless pedals and racing-style shoes (the ones you can *not*
    walk properly)

    Can anyone illuminate me on the advantages and disadvantages of those
    racing-style bicycle shoes and clipless pedals as compared to my MTB-style
    set-up, when both set-ups are used on a road/racing bicycle, please?

    thank you in advance
