After the helpful advice over the weekend I have bought a pair of cycle shoes and the following pedals/toeclips from Edinburgh Bike Co-op
Toe Clips
I fitted them after work and went out to try them out. It was pitch dark by this time so this might have had a influence on the problems I had (especially when I turned around on the unlit cycle path) but I had a nightmare getting my feet into them. It was really hard to get them the right way up and then put my foot in them when I got them turned over. I do not think have the bands to tight as they are lose when I get my feet into them
Is it just a case of persevere and one day it will become second nature or is their a trick to this. I am worried about the junctions on the road I have on my ride to work, it is one thing cycling along staring at my feet on the cycle path but I would not like to do this on the main road.
