Really nice video. It reminds me of learning on the street and on hills. Anyway, seems like there could/should be a school for learning how to ride fixes on the street, brakes or not. I always used gloves, but never had brakes until recently. That has more to do with the type of riding I do now, compared to when I was racing/training. And, the gloves were as much for clearing the tires as for braking (and falling, of course). I'd be interested to know what type of gloves that riders who use them for such are using today.
