I only posted this because no one else has posted hear yet, but any ways to make it a actual topic i find a good riding technique is a ballanced braking of the rear and front brake,
and the only reason i say this is i know a fue people that eather use just the front or rear brake almost all of the time, now normaly this wouldent matter but if you dont get into a habbet of using both brakes together on a regular basis you might not be pron in a hevy braking situation to use both brakes when you realy need to stop fast.
We all know the front brake gives you the most stopping power on good pavment and the rear will stop you with more stibility and control, mostly proven on loose ground but together you can get the max braking out of your bike and maybe save you from an accident.
Now i have only ridden street for a fuw years but if off road riding teaches you anything, its that proper braking can mean the difrence between a good day and a bad one,
so a good thing to practice is hevy braking with both brakes together with out skidding the rear tire while mantaning a good steady pressure to the front brakes Like a car would. If you have ABS on your bike this will be alot more easy
