Upgrading my bike brakes

Today I went to the bike shop I had bought my bike from. I started after worship service.
I went there to upgrade the brakes, for the current ones were low grade and my fingers get much tired after I rode long downhill. I like hill climb, but after climbing up a hill, then downhill come next. I'm so poor at speed that I want to depend on brakes to control the speed. This is the reason I want to upgrade the brake of my bike.
The new ones I wanted was out of stock, so the actual work will be 2 weeks later. For that weekend, I have Abilympics (vocational skills contest) on whole Saturday and dinner with friends from developmental disorder group for Sunday night, so I'm worried that the schedule will be tight on that weekend.

This made me learn some foreign language. However, I'm learning that overseas isn't so good as I dream about, especially as long as I go to public school. W...

It's my lack of confidence that is to be beaten

Autism, is it something to be removed? Or is it just another type of human being? I can't answer to this question. I, as you see, have language, and have a job. Although my struggles are real as well, I hear that there are a lot of cases of struggles many thousand times than mine. Ones who don't have language, or with serious behavioral problem. Although my behavioral problems, mainly social awkwardness, I can't answer the question whether autism is something that should be beaten. Instead, I can answer one question. I have to beat my lack of confidence through long struggles, if I want to succeed.
