kdelong said:I have always sort of wondered if things aren't just a little backwards when you have to clip into and clip out of "clipless pedals"?
That one threw me when I started out too.
I've ridden both but I find I have better technique with clipless. Could just be me but I find it easier to pull up on the pedals with clipless. Very useful for accelerating uphill á la Pantani & Contador (study their stroke from behind and see how much they bend the ankle to pull up on the pedal when accelerating).
