Her First Time Using New Cycling Shoes & SPD Pedals
Her First Time Using New Cycling Shoes & SPD Pedals
We’ve gotten a lot of comments on our YouTube channel for my wife’s accomplishment of cycling 200km to Osaka from Nagoya on flat pedals with regular shoes. Many people have told me to get her a pair of cycling shoes, and we finally did that! Today, Thuong will be trying out her new cycling shoes and Shimano SPD pedals for the very first time!

I actually bought her these shoes a couple months ago, but we were lacking cleats for her to use, and then she had to go back to Vietnam for a few weeks. After arriving back in Japan, we had some rides already planned, and didn’t want to risk learning on the main roads, so we decided to wait..
Today we went to Morikoro Park’s Cycling course, which is a safe 5km course for bicycles only.

As beginner, clipping out both feet can be dangerous because you cannot use a pedal to stay one, which without is a habit. Keep one foot clipped in, get from the saddle, then the other foot on the ground. Starting a ride: No pole. Just hit whatever pedal is ahead of the other.
Push and pull baby
We have something similar to this, except in a grander scale in Tucson, Arizona called the Loop. Approximately 210 km around the city avoiding all traffic. The only problem is pedestrians are allowed. Would love a large course for cycling only.
WHAT IS YOUR SPEED?
Thank God you got a track!
It’s a nice video for people who are hesitating to use a pedal/shoe system like SPD in this film. I only want to mention that a SPD system like in this film, is mostly used in MountainBiking. For road cycling there is another pedal system (the three bold road cycling clip-in). This system offers a more stable platform and enhances the power.
Unfortunenatly they not great for walking. The SPD system is easyier to walk with. Nevertheless great video. I send it to a lady who has already the shoes and the cleats. But afraid to use it, afraid to fall and become injured or get damaged her nice legs…
It’s a choice.
She made it seem so easy. I keep falling and struggling to clip in 😖
My Dad was over there in Japan in the mid nineteen for….. Never mind….
Kain tite
Just took my first clipped ride a few weeks ago. It’s like losing your virginity.
Is she alive? Not much communication going on. Great relation moron.
WoW you do speak her language
nice cycling shoes
This should be good
congrats
She is sitting 2 high, you can see the hip extension especially to the left side.
Zwift in real life. What a beautiful cycling park
I will trytoday for first time!
I have a colnago master that i want to bring to japan when i visit there this summer, it’s got 11-25 on the back and 53/39 on the front and my rd only accept up to 28. Should i get another bike for japan? Thinking about building a pinarello dogma disk with 52/36 and 11-30
What a beautiful place and great video cheers. Just wish london had something like that away from traffic and other thug life!
Try releasing the tension, I have those exact pedals and it made a world of a difference getting in. Congrats Thoung you did great!!👏🏻
Lovely girl … and so glad she did it. Hats off to her friend for speaking japanese that fluent. I wish we could have such an awesome training course over here (Germany) as well.
こんな立派なサイクリングロードが日本にあるのかよ！(嫉妬)
愛地球博の跡地かな？
Beautiful Park, good to holds crit race.
I stopped watching as soon as I saw the matching cycle clothes.
Definitely style over substance
楽しそうな場所ですね😄
ビンディングシューズはサイクリングコースにはいいけれど、一般道路で使用するのは余程慣れていないと危険ですね。
Super . Brawo . Thank you 💝👍 POLAND 👍
dude ima kid I do that in 9 min
Recently switched to clipless pedals, fell over 3 times so far
oh man, hope we also had such kind of track.
Hey, Cruise, so I just recently got into clipless pedals. I bought a pair of Five Ten mtb SPD shoes and Shimano M530 pedals. Is it normal to feel the cleat contacting the ground when you walk just slightly? What about a teeter-totter tilt sensation when you walk in them? I know they make crunching cracking eggshell sound when I walk on gravel. It’s my first time using spd shoes and clipless pedals so I’m not sure if my shoes were defective or it’s just a normal thing for such kind of shoes. Also, how are you suppose to fully utilize the clipless pedals? I know you’re not supposed to mash them by pressing the pedals down hard but instead just feather it. Am I using it correctly?
That is what I will have to do in few months. Though I am happy my wife is exited to start her new experience.
putang ina ilike nyo kung pilipino kayo
omedetto
I think it would be easier to have her first clip with the pedal at 6 o’clock so she can put more weight on it with less balancing, then try to clip the second one while moving like you would on the street lol. but yea clipping in and out the first few times is pretty strange. I think some places recommend you just practice at home leaning against a wall until it gets comfortable
does it really increases performance
Does Thoung-san have a strava account?
Wish there was a track like that near me in UK. That looks great!!
The way she use the cliets shoes..and she ride she look pro😃
What an awesome cycling course!!!!
I just my clipless pedals and I fell the next day took 1 foot out but leaned on the wrong side😂😂😂😂😂 haven’t fell since in been a month already I love them
to simplify engaging/disengaging you can untighten the allen bolt that make the cleat engage
judging by the sound it makes it’s quite tight…
After watch this, i was throwback my own when the first day i’m falled at the traffic light cause forget to clip out the pedal..shame moment my life thought! Hahaha now i cant cycling without it
i cant hear the music could you turn up the music please?
Great video, thank you for that.
Thats great to have such cycling course, it looks perfect.
I am also thinking about getting a clipless pedals and shoes, few my friends recommand it to me and they say its great thing and when you try it you will love it. I am a bit afraid of it, OK with clip in, but what with clip out, hmmm
OwO
Mtb shoes spd on a roadie 😂 should be riding cleats and road shoes
I wondered if she was japanese, she’s angry all the time and hits you! lol
