Bike Braking Techniques

Braking incorrectly can cause you to lose balance or even flip over your handlebars. This event is to provide riders with 1) a reminder to check your brakes and 2) a helpful video about braking correctly. It can be viewed anytime during the upcoming 12 months. If you RSVP, you will get a reminder to read it, but there is no actual group event for this.
