  1. So I can see a little metal dot both above and below my
    cleats from click-in wear. Should I be concerned? My
    Specialized shoes are 4 years old or so.

    On AMB-ID 04 a dude ripped the cleat holder out of his shoe
    making it a long rest-of-the ride.

  2. no what do you want. Nothing last forever. 4 years come on.

    I just ripped the sole off my Sh!tmano shoes and it's only been 1.5 years.

    Well, perhaps that's a good point...and I'm not gentle on
    stuff either. I'll see what I can find around town...I got
    time...took a ride up the hill until it started raining and
    then booked it home.

    It's starting to really come down now and it's a sopping mess
    out there.

    Blue skies here in Joizey. I'll do a 25 miler on dirt tomorrow at Fair
    Hill, MD with my new MTB shoes of course. The only thing I could find
    that fit me were CrapandFail MTB shoes. They are actually very
    comfortable for $70. I have no problem spending more but the cheaper
    ones (I like laces) are always more comfortable that the expensive ones.

    Getting ready to thunder and lightning here.

    I just got some new shoes. My Sidi Rampa's have been on the verge of
    disintegrating for quite some time, and I really wanted something that had
    more of a sticky sole. The hard plastic racer soles really suck for
    hike-a-bike, balancing unclipped on pedals, and anything thing that
    resembles wet rocks or smooth rocks.

    I ended up with a nifty Specialized that seems to be just the ticket.
    Comfy, not too soft, sticky sole and they don't look like GRS. It took a
    while to get the cleat position dialed in, though.
