So I made the drive down to Peloton today and picked up a pair of CrankBrothers Eggbeater SL pedals and a pair of around-town shoes. At first, though I liked a lot of the features of the pedals, I wasn't too impressed with some aspects when I used them with my road shoes. When I tried them with the new shoes, however, all of those problems disappeared. Reading some, it looks like there are <a href="http://www.blueskycycling.com/product3519_36_-Crank-Brothers-Egg-Beater-Road-Cleats.htm">different cleats</a> you can get to use with road shoes so that you don't have any of those problems. I'll see how they are in a month, but right now, they get an A (no +, since it'd be great if they worked just straight up with my road shoes). The shoes are nice, too, though nothing too special. A little tight now, but I'm sure the padding will break in nicely.
I'll be heading down to the shop again this weekend, maybe, to look into a few other little purchases.
