i registered for CSC today.. and it says that i need cowboy boots or hiking boots.. is this really necessary?? cuz i dun have either ha

**dogstar** · 05-22-2003, 03:44 PM

yes, good boots, (even steeltoe work boots if youve got nothing else) are a must

ive got a pair of Cat steeltoes ive been riding with for almost 4 years, most comfy boots ive ever owned, and they saved me from busting my foot up when i was being stupid and snagged it on a pothole (dont ask!)

id suggest finding some boots where you can feel things with your toe though, itll make shifting gears WAY easier.

yes you definatly need good boots, I have a pair of army jump boots that i wore for the course, and although they're bulky, really helped.

having good gear on really raises your confidence level as well. i can't imagine riding in a t-shirt and runners.

it's a good course, you'll have fun, i did

**bol** · 05-22-2003, 05:54 PM

**YCB** · 05-22-2003, 06:56 PM

**Strider** · 05-22-2003, 10:41 PM

you have to wear shoes/boots that cover your ankles.

**YCB** · 05-23-2003, 12:01 AM

**RiCE-DaDDy** · 05-26-2003, 04:00 PM

runners dont protect u feet man
u see people wearing shorts and t shirts, its their choice, they willing to take the risk

**YCB** · 05-26-2003, 05:42 PM

I wouldn't worry, unless you have size 16 feet or something.

dude i rode in army issue jump boots, I had no problem with shifting and those boots are huge.

**gpomp** · 05-26-2003, 05:52 PM

Actually, come to think of it, I could prolly ride a bike with ski boots if I really wanted to...

**Dave P** · 05-26-2003, 06:07 PM

If your taking CSC, odds are your gonna get a bike

Go invest in riding boots, once u try them, youll never go back

**dogstar** · 05-26-2003, 09:37 PM

i wear size 13 steel toes... if i can shift with those things, you can shift with work boots.

take your favorite boots and go to a bike shop, and sit on a bike and practice shifting with your toes, itll tell you whether you can shift with them or not
