A cleat cover for protecting and adding traction to a cleat plate of a bicycle shoe is disclosed. The cleat cover comprises a cover body that includes a main opening at a middle portion and an extended opening at a peripheral edge. A bridge area is present at the side of the cover body for conserving grip on the cleat. The opening of the cover body allows a bicycle pedal to lock into a bicycle cleat while allowing the cover body to remain on the cleat. The cover body covers a plurality of screws and parts that attach the cleat plate. The cleat cover allows a bicyclist to leave the cover on the cleat at all times; when riding, at stops, and when walking on various hard surfaces. Thus, it prevents the cleat plate from unnecessary wear when the bicycle shoe contacts the ground. The bicyclist does not have to remember to remove and replace the cover. The cover body can be releasably engaged with the cleat on the bicycle shoe. |
