After much shoe research and multiple visits to LBS, I just bought 2 pairs of shoes (Shimano SPD-SL and Forte MTB), first one for by road bike with LOOK style pedals and latter for indoor spinning. Being a cycling/clipless shoe newbie I didn't know the compatibility of shoes and cleats. It seems that my Shimano SPD cleats (MTB style) will fit on my new road shoe (it has 3-bolt and 2 bolt compatibility). But they stick out on slick surface shoes thus making them super-dangerous to walk-in. Second pair is SPD only, Forte MTB shoes. With the tread depth and everything, I wouldn't even feel the cleats in this one.
Should I return the Forte and keep the single pair for spinning use and road biking? Its just that I'll have to carry these shoes to spinning class otherwise, I'll break my neck by slipping on hard wooden floor within few steps of locker room. I don't have a MTB bike or pedals... and only plan to use these pedals in spinning classes 4x/week.
Here are the two pairs of shoes....

both of them seem to be great deals but will it be a wise investment to keep both?
