ABSTRACT:
A device to anchor a cyclist's shoe to the pedal of a bicycle is provided, including a plate fixed to the bottom of a cyclist's shoe. The plate has front and rear engageable portions. A bicycle pedal is rotatable about a spindle; and a clip member cooperatively engages the front portion of the plate and a pivotable hook lever to cooperatively engage the rear portion of the plate. The clip member is laterally pivotable about an axis perpendicular to the foot rest surface. Portions of the hook lever and the spindle are adapted to cooperatively engage each other in a manner which prevents the pedal from rotating when the hook lever is not in engagement with the plate.
