I spose it would be reasonably easy going down the gears, but I was too pissed to remember if it hurt much going up them :wink:

Being late for uni regularly i've mastered the art of wearing slides and riding.

mine cover virtually my whole foot so they're comfy for gear change but they would fly off at the slip of the foot let alone an accident.

suffice to say i'm a lot more disciplined with wearing my gear these days :)
