I use SPD stuff (with some SIDI MTB shoes *gasp*)...

Lots of inexpensive shoes to use with spd. The soles aren't giong to be super-stiff with some (like the rubber soled sandles, etc. ) but you can certainly find some good MTB shoes with stiff soles that are compaitible.



I'll probobly end up going to a "toe-clip" cleat at some point when my riding gets to that point, but for right now, what I have suits me fine.
