If you’ve never spent at least a year on flats, doing so is almost certainly the single best thing you can do for your riding skills. When people ask about flats, I always offer to keep their spd or other clip-in pedals and refuse to give them back for an agreed upon period of time. There are definitely going to be some frustrating rides starting out and lots of temptation to switch back.
