I like to ride as fast as I can at all times, and have had quite a few occasions where I have managed to avoid collisions by the skin of my teeth with both brakes. So I don't think I could ride with less brakes, unless I was to ride quite a lot slower, which is ironic really. But then I guess if you're riding too fast, people aren't going to be able to admire your spokks, so if you have a bike designed to go really fast, it's best to ride slow anyway...
