    SPD will be fine. Mostly depends on the type of riding.

    I use shimano mtb spd on both my cross bikes

    Any brand of MTB pedal will be fine off and on road .

    These are what I've always used on my mtb and what I'll be using for my first cross season

    Assuming you mean SPD rather than the SPD-SL road pedals you should be fine although in heavy mud any pedal / cleat can clog up.

    SPDs aren't the best, I've had them clog with mud and leaves - Eggbeaters, Time and Look are better in this respect, pressing down on the foot simply squeezes anything on the foot through the bars.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
