TRAIL BRAKING: Expert Tips for Mastering Throttle and Brake Control Guest: Peter Shimm Episode Summary: Join us for an engaging and informative discussion with Peter Shimm, an experienced rider, as we explore the intricate world of trail braking techniques for street riders. In this episode, we emphasize the importance of blending throttle and brake controls to smooth transitions and stabilize suspension, showcasing the critical role trail braking plays with enhancing safety and handling in unpredictable street riding scenarios. Trail braking isn't just for the racetrack—it's a vital safety tool that every rider should have in their toolkit. Whether you’re navigating winding roads of the mountains or the open stretches of the plains, introducing trail braking early on can be a game-changer. Peter and I dive into real-life examples and discuss how this technique can transform your approach to turns, ensuring you're always in control and never caught off guard. Full Transcript: 0:00:15 - Bret Tkacs Welcome to Around the Wheel with Bret Tkacs. This time we're talking with Peter Shimm, a 13-year veteran of riding and a relatively new adventure rider at two and a half years in the adventure world. He rides a 1200 GS from 2017. And we have a fantastic topic coming up today. And, Peter, why don't I let you introduce how we got to this topic? 0:00:40 - Peter Shimm Well, Bret, thanks for doing this. I am a huge fan boy of your videos and I am particularly very, very happy that you branched out with your new venture on YouTube. One of your recent topics was trail braking. I think it was a taped segment that you made in New Zealand or somewhere down under. It was really really good and got a very, very positive response in the comment section. One of the things you touched on in that talk really resonated with me. You talked a little bit about blending the throttle and the brake. Blending the brake, but blending the controls, which is something that I learned from Lee Parks and his Total Control course, and it's a technique that I just completely buy into. It's just it's made a huge difference in my riding. But yet, besides Lee Parks, you never, ever hear anybody talk or advocate that technique, and when you brought it up in your trail braking talk it really got my interest. It apparently also got the interest of a lot of people who watched that video because in the comments section it just set off a firestorm of controversy. It was really really interesting some of the discussion that took place below in the comments section. I really would love to go into that specific topic deeper with you because I've just found it to be such a fantastic way to smooth the transition from deceleration to acceleration and the way it just smooths out your suspension and it doesn't upset the suspension, so I'd really love for you to go into that in a deeper way. 0:02:35 - Bret Tkacs Let's definitely dive into that. I taught the Total Control stuff. Lee and I have known each other since before his book ever came out initially, and I also know Nick Ienatsch, and both those guys take a position on either side of me. Nick Ienatsch is far more into the separation of the braking and the throttle, which is a great way to trail brake. However, it requires a level of smoothness that often riders lack. And Lee Parks takes the other side of that. He likes very significant overlap of that braking and that blending, both that throttle and that braking. And again, also, that is a you know if you've done the course. I'm guessing you've done his level two if you've gotten into that. That it's also a fairly high skillset. But one of the things both of these guys have is a background in racing. They both spend a lot of time on the racetrack and although both of them advocate street riding and they use their trail braking methods to the street, they weren't developed from and for specifically street riders,
