An apparatus includes a frame, a braking material and a guide material. The frame includes a braking portion and a guide portion. The braking portion extends generally circumferentially around a surface of a wheel. The guide portion is coupled to the braking portion. A first part of the guide portion extends from the braking portion proximate to a first end of the braking portion over a portion of the wheel. The braking material is coupled to the braking portion of the frame. The braking material provides frictional force opposing rotational movement of a wheel when a force is applied between the braking material and the wheel. The guide material is couple to the guide portion of the frame. The guide material is coupled to the guide portion of the frame.
