I trail brake regularly. But I'm much more comfortable going up hill...as I'm sure alot of people are.

Ditto.

But I heard Cali Superbike School discourages trail braking, claiming you should get all your braking done and then flick it over. Meh, who cares, I trailbrake because I think it makes the front end feel better.
