Braking

[Frosties]

For the newbies I guess you go with what you were taught and gradually modify your style to suit, not only in braking but in the way you control your bike.

:agree

I dont ever remember being taught anything back in the 80s but What I have found after years of riding is that I will read something about say- counter steering and then go out on my bike thinking about what I have read and then think - shit that's what I always do and I never knew it was a "thing" and had a name. Same with positioning I never knew that what I was doing all the time without thinking was a technique in some book, same go's for all the braking technique, I didnt know that trailing the back brake in certain situations was a "thing" I thought everyone did it

It's got to be hard being perfect...... :lol
