Nothing much wrong with flats, tbh... I'm not allowed SPDs because of my knee (might have mentioned that before in this thread, not sure) but I used to use them, and though I miss them sometimes there's others when i'd sooner have my flats. Both have their strengths and weaknesses, depends a lot on what you're riding too and how you ride it of course but I wouldn't feel you have to rush to change if I was you. Spiky flats and sensible shoes (Vans skate shoes are perfect) work really well.
