Or maybe a stiff Brandy!! [Your comment did make me chuckle though Steven].

I've a good friend who used to own a Matchless engine M3W back in the day and he has great stories of stomping on the footbrake, which I believe only worked on the back wheel, and sailing on at full speed, whilst the backwheel locked up and skidded on the muck in the centre of the road, and especially on country roads with grass in the middle.
