I know that this has been discussed to death but if I am a 210lb recreational rider who rarely rides more than three hrs at a time, is there any need for slippery soled cycling shoes? I have some Giro Codes that seem pretty stiff for my needs.

Sell the Speedplays and Sworks shoes?
Do you walk around a lot in bike shoes? If so, sure, swap the shoes and pedals..if not..but if ya really love the ATACS, sure..
