I restarted cycling this Spring and am enjoying riding my Specialized Secteur (the basic £600 one, I hasten to add) and my Decathlon Rockrider mountain bike.
I have been riding the Specialized 3-4x a week, totalling no more than 120-200 (flat, Lincolnshire) miles; the mountain bike doesn't get a chance at mountains (remember it's Lincolnshire!), but is fun for a couple of hours off road. As a teacher, with the new year looming, weekly mileage is going to plummet until next Spring, but I'd like to get set up as soon as possible.
What pedals would people recommend?
My priority would be the Specialized, rather than the off-road bike. I'm so ignorant, I don't know anything about pedals and the shoes which go with them and which, presumably, have to be chosen to be compatible. I'm within reach of a Decathlon store and have been pleased with the quality of other stuff (e.g. walking gear) which I've bought there before, but I'd be very grateful for ANY suggestions.
With many thanks
