Okay, kiddo, have you ever ridden a bike? You know how you use the pedals to make the bike go faster? Well, sometimes you might want to slow down or stop your bike, right? When you need to do that, you use the brakes.
Now, when you use the brakes, you have to be careful not to stop too suddenly because that can be dangerous. That's where something called cadence braking comes in. Cadence braking means that you use the brakes gently and gradually to slow down or stop your bike.
It's kind of like when you're skipping or walking, you have a certain rhythm or pace. With cadence braking, you follow a rhythm or pace when you use the brakes. It's like tapping your fingers to a song - you tap at a steady pace.
So, when you need to stop your bike using cadence braking, you apply the brakes gently, then release them slightly, and then apply them again. You keep doing this until your bike slows down or stops. This helps to prevent your bike from suddenly stopping and helps you control your bike better.
Cadence braking can help you stay safe when you're riding your bike or any other vehicle that has brakes. It may sound complicated, but it's just a type of careful and gentle braking that helps you slow down smoothly.
