Quote: Use a little more back brake and a little less front in the rain. Using one gear lower than normal helps too.
Maybe that's what I meant. I nearly wiped out in my Direct Access training by trying to front brake as I was going round a corner. The instructor told me never to use the front brake alone if the wheels weren't straight. It was raining heavily though.
The thread title was "save-a-newbie". I don't think he will have, or even should attempt to, master trail-biking methods on the streets. But I'm a newbie too, so what do I know?
