Chances are you won't go over the handlebars since your weight is over your back wheel. You should also feather your rear brake to keep yourself balanced. Keep the front wheel lined up with the bike frame to avoid skidding. You may feel the back wheel lift off of the ground so put your weight over the back wheel a little more and it will go down. You should be able to come to a safe stop before hitting the obstacle.
Conditions change daily and it's always harder to brake on wet trails.
It's best to go more cautiously on a new trail. Refer to the credits for additional information. For advertising information, click here .
