ABSTRACT:
Cycle pedalling apparatus has a latch element that projects upward on a pedal and that has a pair of latch members directed and resiliently deflectable along a latch axis that extends longitudinal with the axis about which the pedal revolves. A socket element on the sole of a rider's foot releasably and replaceably couplingly seats the latch element for pedalling action, and releases from the latch element under multiple selected non-pedalling loads.
