Instead of making fun of people for not knowing things, post ITT what knowledge you gained recently.
So others may learn, too.
I learnt that there are 2 different kinds of mountainbike SPD cleats - the silver ones release by twisting your foot outwards or pulling upwards hard. They're great for beginners cause they'll let your foot go if you instinctively pull away from the pedal.
The black ones don't do that. They only release when you twist your foot. They're great for hard riding when pulling on the pedal is something you actually may want to do, for bunny hops and for skidding fixed gear bikes.
