Clog

\"clog

It\’s good to know that clog doesn\’t always mean a plumbing problem, isn\’t it? There\’s clog dancing, too!

I think it would be fun to learn the steps; and I wouldn\’t really need those wooden-soled shoes to do it. Sneakers would work fine, or even socked feet. (Sock hop, anyone?) Incidentally, it\’s amazing to watch that shoemaker at work. The clogs almost make themselves under his skilled hands.

Skip the cycling shoes here. Even MTB cleats are probably too slick; and as for roadie cleats, don\’t even think of it. The dancing probably isn\’t good for the cleats, anyhow. Why wear them out unnecessarily?

Incidentally, something funny was going on with my left cycling shoe this morning. It didn\’t feel right at all; and it kept coming unclipped. This is the pair of shoes that just got new cleats, too! Was I doing something wrong, or is something wrong with the cleat? I hope the pedals themselves aren\’t wearing out!

This morning was great cycling weather. It actually felt more like October than May; but soon the heat and humidity of Summer will hit us full blast. Summer typically arrives too abruptly, and we don\’t have a chance to \”warm up\” to it.

It looks like good riding weather again tomorrow morning; and as I work from home Friday, maybe I can make a trip to Whole Foods before I clock in for work.

However happy I am about Friday, though, just remind me not to try dancing in my cycling shoes.
