If I read this right, you are riding at 60 then hit the brakes until 30 then worry about which gear you are in?

Instead of the brakes at 60, drop a gear and let the engine slow youm then drop another, then another.

If you are watching and reading the road correctly, your brakes should only really be used when you want/need to come to a stop.
