any cyclists/roadies?

I wouldn't buy without trying them on. If you have a shop with a good amount of shoe selections try them on and ensure they fit then buy online.

Peddles - Road = Shimano Ultegra Mountain = Time ATAC XS.

Yea, it was a thought. I think I'm gonna head out to a few shops tomorrow to see what works for me. I wear a size 12, but my foot measures a 10.5. I have wide feet so I have to go bigger to get a toe box that fits.

I wouldn't buy shoes online period. The shop is going to mount the cleats and make whatever other adjustments that doing yourself is a pain. Especially if you are new to the sport I would not recommend. All for what? Save $30? If you want to nickel and dime, cycling is not your sport. Doing so makes for the worst end result; buying it again... Buy everything right the first time and you'll save more than trying to save cutting corners.

Bicycles it is a little different. Once you have a running bike and geometry/style you like, you can hunt down parts new and used to build a 2nd or specialty bike.
