any cyclists/roadies?

Thanks for the suggestions. I too have wide feet so shoes will be fun to try. I'll hit up the various shops around town to see who has what.

I wouldn't go below $150 on shoes. I like ones that have some kind of heal pad. Sidi's are replaceable. The North Wave they are molded.

One thing to consider is how much venting the shoes have. Vents are great for most of the year, but come October I have to wear booties as they vent too much!

Back to peddles, make sure whatever you buy has sufficient "float". Float allows the foot to turn right or left with coming undone on the peddles. If your foot can't swerve, the next location is your knee and you don't want that one...
