High Heel Place - View Single Post

I've cycled before, in 5.5" heels. The soles don't exactly grip the pedals, so standing up, or doing extreme stuff is out. If the heel gets stuck, you better un-stuck them fast, too. Plus, because you usually roll up your pant legs (if you're wearing pants) while biking, it's really obvious to others what you're wearing. Can't hide behind wide pants or whatever.

I figure if you use clips on your pedals, or if you attach those SPD clips onto your shoes if you have SPD pedals, you can get better grip. I had neither.

I can't seem to think of anything else I've done...
