How do you brake in the wet? If your bike has rim brakes, you'll need to adapt your braking technique. Brake late, as you might in the dry, and you could fail to stop in time. We bring you the pro tips and techniques to elevate your riding in the wet allowing you to slow down safely and effectively whatever the weather.

The Global Cycling Network puts you in the centre of the action: from the iconic summit of the Stelvio to the epic trails of Fort William, Scotland, everywhere there is pavé or dirt, world-class racing, and pro riders, we will be there bringing you all the action, essential analysis and unparalleled access every week, every month, and every year.
