Mood: st2......we can rebuild
i still practice my emergancie stops
when i set of for work in the morning i'll do a bit of heavy braking just to see how much grip there is
when i first started trying this i was amazed at how heavily you can apply the brakes on a wet greasy road
but this only works in a straight line
when it's icy aim to ride as if i had no brakes, and in reality in icy conditions you havn't
and on a high torqe bike cutting the gas on a slippy bit of road is often enough to lock the back wheel
but however carefull you are there is still the unexpected and you must have a safty zone large enough to deal with these eventualitys
