Another misnomer that bugs me: santana vs. santa ana
Santana - a strong offshore wind blowing from the dezert.
Santa Ana - a city in Orange County.
Another example why you shouldn't get your news from television.
BTW: clipless pedals are a fad.

I use actual real bear traps for pedals. They're great for improving your agility.

OK, I'll give it a shot; I'm pretty sure I can hear shimano clip in; It's audible....

With my Candy 4 Ti's, I don't here anything, it just happens quietly....

So, clearly I'm wrong with the Shimano Mrktg department, but I can here em pop or clip or something...

Years ago when we first moved to Orange Co(1962), most folks caled it Santy Anny.

So when you come to a fork in the road; do you get out and pick them up?

Clipless = just another passing fad!

I ride sporks and sometimes when I pedal my feet stick to the pedals and sometimes they don't. It all depends on the bike, course and the shoes.
