  1. I am a tecnho numpty. I've bought a pair of these Aldi shoes. I started to follow the instructions but after putting the screws in the bottom of the shoe. i can't fathom how to put the bits on the inside of the shoe as the screws don't protrude far enough through for the inside bits to go onto.
    Any help appreciated. I have fitted the outside bits and these feel solid enough. Is that enough or do I really need the inside bits on?

    Good grief, cyclingforums really does produce the most
    appallingly-formatted articles. If you have a newsreader, point it at
    uk.rec.cycling, a much better way to access this newsgroup.

    Anyway, it seems that the bits that are shown as going inside the shoe
    aren't required. The shoe has its own bits already built in, so just
    bolt the cleats to those.

    I don't see the start of this thread. Am I doing something wrong with OE, or
    is this due to the up-the-spout formatting mentioned by Daniele?

    I have those shoes. You don't need the inside bits. I put them in my
    sandwich. Very tasty.

    Don't worry ............ some people tend to get a little upset if you
    don't do the right 'computer thang' top posting and all that [censored].

    I see this forum as a place to exchange information and help people,
    rather than worry about splellign and computer etiquette ......

    I don't think so - perhaps that article hasn't arrived at your server
    yet, or perhaps it has been cancelled.

    It may be "all that [censored]", but I hardly ever read anything by people
    posting from cyclingforums. That's not because I object to their
    formatting, but because the way stuff they post appears makes it almost
    unreadable.

    Words at the end of one line and the beginning of the next are joined
    together. Paragraphs merge into one. It's not the users' fault, but the
    fact is that I usually simply don't bother to read what they have to say
    because it's too hard work; all I see is a jumble of text. I expect
    other people have the same problem.

    I'm not getting that problem with any posts appearing as you have described
    from cyclingforums posters. I do, however, have a slight gripe when
    cyclingforum posters see this uk.rec.cycling as a cyclingforums forum. It
    isn't.

    Well, there is some advantage if everyone puts a little care into
    ensuring that their posts are readable and have a consistent and
    easily followed train of thought.
