1) Dan's series on running shoes is making me wonder if I'm wasting money on my shoes. I run a lot on cement and asphalt and so I've been wearing Asics Gel Kayanos for the past couple of years and have remained injury free and comfortable. At the same time, I'm only 5'8" and 155 lbs and have a pretty true stride without pronation or supination. So I'm wondering if I really need to be dropping $120 per pair of shoes or if I wouldn't be just fine in any number of cushioned shoes in that $75 to $90 price range. In other words, am I driving a Hummer when a Mini would do just fine.
2) Is there some rule of thumb on replacing cycling shoes? There are lots of mileage and time metrics for replacing your running shoes but is there something comparable for cycling?
