I have enough trouble keeping up with the money it costs for running shoes and running gear. So I'll stick to old-fashion pedals...lol. Heck I’m never going clipless.

It's too funny. A friend of mine (I swear to GOD it wasn't me) but herself a fancy little mountain bike and eventually some funky clippy-in-type pedals. And then one day she went out on the road...road to the first intersection (a red light) came to a halt and promptly fell over. In morning rush hour traffic. HAHAHAHA! Sorry..not funny at all. I'm sure that wouldn't happen to you. :) Ok..might not be the best time to share this story…but I have to. It’s too funny.

Can't you ride with "normal" pedals and work up to that? I'm not very knowledgeable so my question may be doltish. Why do you HAVE to clip in?
