Whoops
I always use my right foot for balance when I stop, so the right toeclip is the one that always runs the risk of getting scraped along the pavement when I start. It had gotten quite bent over the last week or so, so I tried to gently bend it back into shape only to discover that a stress fracture had gone almost all the way through the metal around the rivet when I did that.
At least I’ve got a pair of el-cheapo black plastic toeclips to swap in (for that elegant matchy-matchy look.)

It’s simpler than that: Clipless requires special shoes, but I can use regular shoes with toeclips.

I have the mountain bike type SPD shoes, where the cleat is reset so you can still walk in them.

I’m surprised you haven’t graduated to SPD pedals by now. Or are they too fiddly for you?
