I’ve just about convinced my wife that going to Hadleigh Park this weekend (weather dependent) is a good idea and, after reading the website and now trying to plan kit and stuff.
The trouble is that I will be taking a new bike to an unfamiliar trail and of, for those that have actually cycled the place, should I stick with the clip pedals, or swap out for flats?
Part of me thinks that I’ll be fine with my SPDs on, but there’s that little voice in the back of my head that’s willing to sacrifice the extra pedalling efficiency for the knowledge that, if it all goes horribly wrong, I can move my feet without having to worry about un-clipping.
Any advice welcome.
