I signed up for the 3State3Mountain ride on May 3rd. Initially I was concerned about the climbing involved given I had never climbed a mountain on my bike. However, my concerns of recent have centered around the descents - how does one handle these? I've been down some big hills but never a mountain not to mention one that may have switchbacks or really long run outs. I don't want to cause an accident nor do I wish to be involved in one while coming down one of the three mountains involved in this ride. Is it best to feather the brakes? Use the back brakes more than the front? A combination of the the two? So many questions, sorry!
