Aerodynamic bicycle shoe cover and pedal cover

An aerodynamic cover for a bicycle pedal, cleat, and shoe, the cleat attached to a base plate and the base plate attached to a bottom surface of the shoe, the aerodynamic cover comprising:

• a pedal cover having
• a rounded bottom surface,
• a substantially planar top surface, and
• a recess defined in the top surface of the pedal cover and configured to receive a bottom portion of the bicycle pedal;
• a main body including an ankle portion having a rear side, a heel portion connected to the ankle portion, and a sole portion connected to the heel portion and having an underside;
• an opening formed in the sole portion for allowing a bicycle pedal to be engaged to the bicycle cleat;
• and
• an outwardly extending fin that stretches from the rear side of the ankle portion, around the heel portion, to the underside of the sole portion.

An aerodynamic cover for a bicycle pedal and cleat, the cleat attached to a base plate and the base plate attached to a bottom surface of a shoe sole, the aerodynamic cover comprising:

• a pedal layer having
• a rounded bottom surface,
• a substantially planar top surface, and
• a recess defined in the top surface of the pedal layer and configured to receive a portion of the bicycle pedal;
• a cleat layer having
• a substantially planar bottom surface,
• a substantially planar top surface spaced in a substantially parallel relationship with the bottom surface of the cleat layer, and
• an opening extending from the bottom surface of the cleat layer to the top surface of the cleat layer and configured to receive the cleat;
• and
• a base plate layer having
• a substantially planar bottom surface,
• a top surface that substantially conforms to the bottom surface of the shoe sole, and
• an opening extending from the bottom surface of the base plate layer to the top surface of the base plate layer and configured to receive the base plate.

A bicycle pedal/cleat assembly comprising:

• a clipless bicycle pedal;
• a pedal cover configured to be removably attached to the clipless bicycle pedal and having
• a rounded bottom surface,
• a substantially planar top surface, and
• a recess defined in the top surface of the pedal cover and configured to receive a bottom portion of the clipless bicycle pedal;
• a bicycle cleat configured to releasably engage the clipless bicycle pedal and comprising
• a spring housing,
• a bottom plate configured to be secured to the spring housing, and
• a spring clip mounted between the spring housing and the bottom plate,
• wherein the spring housing and bottom plate define an opening sized and shaped to receive a top portion of the clipless bicycle pedal;
• a cleat cover configured to surround the cleat and having
• a substantially planar bottom surface,
• a substantially planar top surface spaced in a substantially parallel relationship with the bottom surface of the cleat cover, and
• an opening extending from the bottom surface of the cleat cover to the top surface of the cleat cover and configured to receive the cleat;
• a base plate configured to be attached to the cleat and to a bottom surface of a shoe sole;
• and
• a base plate cover configured to surround the base plate and having
• a substantially planar bottom surface,
• a top surface that substantially conforms to the bottom surface of the shoe sole, and
• an opening extending from the bottom surface of the base plate cover to the top surface of the base plate cover and configured to receive the base plate.
