    T's Newb Question of the Week #2 - Braking

    Okay let's do braking:

    When, if at all, do you trail brake? Is there ever a valid reason for doing so?

    And, I know there is some mixed media here, but when braking for a light, or before starting a turn, should you start with rear brake first, then front brake, or both in conjunction with one another?

    I personally, am already forming my habits. But let's see what you all think!
