Check brakes at top of hill not part way down or bottom...



Was riding Triton once - along the flat in a straight line, fiddling with the front brake - cos it felt weird - stopped feeling weird when it locked up and off I went down the road on me bum.  Poor old dear passing - probably just about getting over the heart attack from the popping and banging on the over run - thought I was badly hurt - I was writhing and could nto speak...  Nah laughing my wotsits off.  Mind lucky there was no traffic about - it was usually a busy road.

So best of luck with the big bangs.
