It was wonderful to sell off all my old Look pedals/shoes/cleats a few years back (along with my tubular tires and wheels).
Now I use solely (get it?) SPD or platform. Shimano A520 on my main road bikes. Very supportive for long rides. For mixed riding on my Allrounder and Quickbeam (commute/errands/long&serious), I like the platform/SPD combo Shimano A530. Great pedal. Platforms are on my 3speed and mountain bike. The 3speed has the Grip Kings, a misnomer if there ever was one. I have found I really like BMX pedals on my mtn bike. When things get dicey, I am more willing to push it if I can immediately get my foot down off a platform pedal. Also I occasionally do hikes/jogs in the middle of a mtn bike ride and like to have a trail shoe for that.
