Yep, just start out with the clipless pedals. Just practice unclipping a lot at first so it becomes second nature to you.
The sooner you start using them, the sooner you'll get used to them.
Enjoy your new bike!

does anyone have a good pedal/shoe combo they can suggest that i took a peak at?

Shimano 105 or Ultegra pedals, with a floating SPD cleat,
for shoes go to the shop and try different ones, just buy the one that fit you better, -
I disagree. I would go with Speedplay Zero's for sure. They are much easter to use as they are a stomp and go type and you can clip in on both sides of the pedal. They have a much better float adjustment system too. Speedplay's customer service is great if you have any issues or questions.

Speedplay Zeros, shimano Ultegra, both good systems. Speedplay have adjustable float, are 2 sided, more maintainable. shimano are a improved design from LOOK.
