I think it's time to lose the toeclips. Smiling

You should be using either flat pedals or double-sided clipless. For starting out I'd recommend flats while you build the bike skills, and then switch to clipless when it becomes apparent that you need them to go faster (as it will, sooner or later depending on how often you ride).

If you can get around alright with those toeclip things, you might be able to skip the flats.
