By admin

www.rei.com Dan, an REI Outdoor School instructor, shows the safest way to slow down and stop your road bike in this video. Tip: The left hand controls the front brake; the right hand controls the rear brake. The key to slowing and stopping is to grab then both at the same time and with the same pressure. Caution: Do not use too much front brake! Tip: For sudden stops, shift your weight to the back of the bike to help maintain your stability.

HOOGERHEIDE, THE NETHERLANDS – Cyclo-cross UCI race of the world cup 2011-2012. The winners are 1. Marianne Vos (NED) 2. Daphne van den Brand (NED) and 3. Katerina Nash (CZE). ——————————————————— Thomas van Bracht writes… Marianne Vos (Rabobank Ladies Team) won today’s race in Hoogerheide, her 15th win in a row out of 16 races. Behind her, Daphny van den Brand, (AA-Cycling team) was second, just before Katerina Nash. After the start, there was a huge crash, knocking out both Caroline Mani from France and Sophie de Boer from the Netherlands with serious injuries. Vos then broke away alone on the first lap and stayed away to win alone. Behind her, a group of three chases formed who were competed for the two remaining minor places. On the last lap, Daphne van den Brand tied up second place by attacking and crossing the line alone and thus ensuring a win in the GC. ——————————————————— More news about the race and photos see: www.velouk.net ——————————————————— Video is produced by CyclingHD owned footage, except audio. www.pimnijland.nl
