Isn't that what brakes are for?

Back about 20yrs ago when I still rode motorcycles on the street I used to ride with some guys up to Prescot, AZ. On the way back we would descend Yarnell Hill, nearly a 5000ft drop in 8 miles. We would race down the entire thing engine off and coasting. He who used the brakes the least won (there was drafting too). Good times.
