One thing people miss about Flat pedals is the ability to slightly vary your foot position. Slight shifts in foot position can help with cramping or tired muscles. Can't do that with clips.

[@TroyOnTrails]

Very true. That freedom of movement can also help with knee pain.

I trained for Ultra. I’m looking for comfort and speed, I have a touring binding with one side flat and the other side clip-less. The clip-less is not that tight so I can change me foot position slightly and the flat side is for cautious riding like the city or very busy circulation of people or car, etc,,, I have a wide range of foot and leg 🦵 position.

Great advice!
Thanks!

[@TroyOnTrails]

Thanks for watching. Enjoy the ride.

What gloves are you wearing Troy? I like the idea of full fingered gloves with tips clear for computer/phone/food manipulation.

[@TroyOnTrails]

LOL. Those are just torn. My index finger and thumb always blow through my gloves. But it certainly is handy for touch screens.
