Pedal Fail

So, I've had cranks, handlebars, forks, chains, chainrings, saddles, seatposts, headsets, spokes, hubs, derailleurs, brakes, and shifters catastrophically fail in the past, but never a pedal. This takes the prize for inconvenience and frustration. To improve matters, I had to go to the machine shop to remove the Look cleats from the shoes I used with these pedals, as they were stuck in place with years of sweat.

I'm replacing these with Speedplay Zeros, meaning that all of my bicycles now have those pedals, or SPDs. Finally. Good riddance.
