[@andrewoh1663]

There's another point about to vision which is important: We are not only binocular but binocular in the horizontal plane. So, if we want to judge distance well, we should tilt out head so that the head remains vertical even when the body is leaning into the corner. You'll see cricket batsmen, batters in baseball doing this: Their body is leaning but they tilt their head to bring it upright.

[@trumpetreneau]

Whoa. Never really thought about that! Cool idea!!

[@photomorti]

I never thought about this! thats good stuff

[@newlife155]

I have watched people doing exactly that and thought they were less effective riders than those that did not tilt there heads, sigh.

[@rustymustard7798]

A technique i use is to look ahead and memorize. I'll look ahead from the point i can see detail and beyond, and remember what i saw, keeping eyes up and a mental picture of what's under me. I draw am imaginary line where i want to go, and to my vision, the line appears as a subtly different texture visually from the non-line It's a visualization trick i've used all my life, i've been riding since about age 5.

[@renegadepsyker]

Wow. Before learning to ride in real life, I was playing MotoGP 24. I remember thinking often: I'm crashing all the time. This is crazy. There must be something in my visual field that will help me do the right thing. I started playing, trying to "consciously" subconsciously absorb visual information, and upon learning this and reflecting, it seems what I subconsciously learned is a little like this limit point. Of course, that's a game, and while very useful, IRL is a little different. But the parallels between that experience and this video are clear to me. I already love this technique. Now, let's see if I can improve my MotoGP 24 times! After every IRL riding lesson, I shave off a second here and there from my prior best lap time.

[@danebrewer10]

I'd be really interested in a video on cornering on tight hairpin/switchbacks in the mountains, not something I'll be doing a lot of but a fundamental part of an Alps Moto tour 👌🏻 I'm enjoying your style and explanations 👌🏻

[@pmacc3557]

How to stop yourself "freezing" on the bike? that moment when you know you are going to go wide and your body locks and you go wide ...happens in a micro second...

[@johnherian781]

Most braking/slowing is done before the start of the turning. Adjust speed you are comfortable upon entry.Use counter steering to lean the bike.Maintain speed through the turn.Only accelerate once your bike is pointed toward the exit.Remember slow in,fast out.Keep your head up and look through the turn. I think "freezing" is due to to much speed in to corners causing the rider to panic or shut down.Lots of accidents can be avoided by using the "slow the fuck down" technique.😅

[@johnherian781]

Line selection it also important.There are a lot of videos on that. It's not about speed in cornering,it's about being efficient throughout the whole corner.

[@jamesnoneofyourbusiness8808]

Open your body. Stay loose. Lean it out.

[@daniele36140]

Not an expert and I hope André replies to you to correct me eventually. But I feel like one second before the crash is too late to do anything, in fact panic ensues and you freeze. The thing to do would be to look at the curve way before and slow down in time

[@pmacc3557]

Excellent info. Thanks guys. Yes avoid the freeze is the main one..

[@StevieGTO4]

Wish you posed this a few days ago. Could have used the limit point info. Came across a decreasing radius turn to fast. Luckily, I rolled off the throttle and looked passed the turn. Almost had target fixation

[@renegadepsyker]

I was 50 pence-ing a corner in my driving school today, haha. Now I know! It was a nice corner to practice-down and up and a double apex, and my instinct is still to hug the inside.

[@andymackellar]

I think it helps to teach forward ( and rearward in the mirrors) scanning so that the focus point is purposefully being moved very regularly, and hopefully less likely to fix on any one point. Great video and lovely effects that help explain beautifully, I will definitely use this with my candidates.

[@erniecolussy1705]

I full agree with what you are teaching. I tend to say, "look farther up the road" instead of saying, "look farther down the road." I am just trying to make the point to students to not look down. So I try to avoid using the word down.

Great video and explanation. A lot of accidents can be avoided with good self control, I see lots of bikers trying to get their knee down in corners as if they are on race track, unfortunately road surfaces are less predictable than the race track, there could be gravel, potholes, adverse cambers or other objects including oncoming traffic. Want to race go to the track. Just what I see while I’m riding. Stay safe.

[@eddiejaoude]

Grat video series and explanation! Thank you

[@bobmastermotovlog]

Most important video for riders ❤

[@BackWithTheBoom]

As a mc for 15 years i can confirm this as i tell this to my learners. Also sometimes learners try to really steer in with the steering handles into the corner. But if you go right into a right corner with some apex try to push with your hand on the right side. The bike will automatic lean instead of trying to steer immensly..

[@geoffreycheuvart9228]

Hello, thanks a lot for this serie of videos. I am not sure I have understood well the concept about the "limit point" of the road, but it seems very practicle and I am impatient to learn more about it in the part 3 🙂 Have a great day !

[@FranciscoSanchez-su2ji]

Eager to see the 3rd part. Great, great, great content.

[@FTStratLP]

Thank you for another very knowledgable and interesting video. BTW target fixation is also the reason why attacking footballers very often shoot directly towards the goalkeeper altghough there was plenty of space right and left of the goalkeeper to place the ball in the goal. That's why shooting good penalties is so difficult. You have to have an eye on the goal keeper to see where he is moving, but you also have to look where you want to shoot the ball. Sorry, that was a bit off topic now. 😊

[@brianglendenning1632]

You need to look where you want to go, not at what you are trying to avoid. Go and ride technical single track on a mountain bike, and you pick the better line when you focus where you go rather than focus on hazards. You then take the better line.

[@mpilis13]

[@sigmaoctantis1892]

A note on stereopsis (binocular depth perception). Stereopsis is effective for depth perception up to about 18m (depending on the study, some state it is less than that). I do not have stereopsis, I cannot fuse the image from both eyes, and have ridden for many years without encountering problems with depth perception. This in no way detracts from your discussion of limits points, only that it perception at that distance does not require binocular vision.

[@gorrdd]

I might add that centrifical balance is also employed. As we experience success in practicing turns, our inner ear sends centrifical balance information to our brain that records the experience. This positive experience of eye to inner ear balance is what gives us confidence that we know what to expect going into and coming out of turns. This is what professional circuit racers have perfected to a keen sense of pushing the limits... all things remaining basically the same. But add a little bit of loose dirt into the line of the turn... and all bets are off.😳 Gord

[@white890]

In my country if you look only far and foward you will crash reason being is the fng potholes.

[@FreakZAR]

I do agree with this, but want to share something funny that happened to me. I stopped at T junction and proceeded to turn right looking while looking further into the turn. I noted sand in the t section of the road and decided to take it easy and turn slower. Oops, big mistake! The sand was not sand but pig sh1t😢 I went down as if on ice with slicks. Lesson learned, don't assume anything in the road, it could be anything, even sh1t from your local pig farm😂

[@smithgroove945]

Very cool idea.👍👍👍

[@michaelhord]

I'm not going crazy fast before the corner but I go in feathering the front brake in and maybe just a hint of rear. When I get to my perfect lean angle about 1/3 of the way through I let off the brakes and start to twist the throttle a little. As soon as I'm half way through I'm adding more and more throttle. I am looking through to where I want to go. That motorcycle chick taught me that (just like you) on the very day I needed to hear and see it. I would have crashed had I not noticed that I was fixated and instead looked up and to where I wanted to go. Worked like magic.

[@GhostRider020]

Thanks for that cornering level 2 lesson. I' looking forward to level 3 lesson, combining where you look with upper body (OK lower body too but the vision and head placement kind of work together) position for nailing a corenr you entered way too fast. Are instructors allowed to talk about how to go around corners way too fast?

[@DsDex-zk1lx]

Why does target fixation seem to be less of a problem when driving an automobile ? I have never hit a guard rail with my car.

[@micaKTM1290]

Because getting through a turn in a car is a much simpler and safer process than on a bike. Car drivers do target fixate also. When a cop get hits on the side of the road it isn't because their flashing lights are not seen. It is because a driver fixated on them.

[@daniele36140]

Turning with a car is easier and more forgiving

[@Murad.bn2]

When driving a car, much less input from the whole body is required, e.g. you can sit closer to the steering wheel and hold it with all 10 fingers (scared beginner), or lay back and use 2 fingers (relaxed profi style), the car will still make the turn according to wheels angle. With a motorbike, it is not the case - head movement can provoke a minor body movement (hands, lean angle), and then you'll go not where intended.

[@mildyproductive9726]

Turn wheel more = turn tighter. Motorcycle is more nuanced. A lot of people claim that to turn right you push right. That's all. If your bike is very quick steering and you never lean deep, then that is indeed all you need to know. On a more stable steering bike, particularly at deeper lean, there's more to it. You have to start doing little twitches to make the bike lean deeper, in time. And you also need to hold countertorque on the bars to hold a deep lean angle while maintaining speed, or else the bike will stand back up a bit. But this countertorque is very subtle at lesser lean angles, so many riders only do this subconsciously, if at all. Some riders tend to brake all the way through corners to destablize the bike, because they're afraid of putting pressure on the bars to maintain lean angle; they don't understand that this is a normal part of steering. When dragging brake, the bike no longer self-stabilizes, so it doesn't try to stand back up on its own, anymore. The more of this stuff you do subconsciously, the more it will work only when you're looking where you want to go. As soon as you look away, now you start to consciously think about what you're doing with your hands and body.. So you notice you're applying countertorque, now. But you don't understand it, so you stop. And you run wide. Notice target fixation never makes you accidentally turn the bike tighter. It only make you either freeze and fail to lean deeper, or even stand the bike up and run wide.

[@RaduAndrei-jd3rl]

Yes, good in theory but reality looks otherwise, because you rarely are able to see the entire corner like you do on the track. More, there are usually cars in front of you on the road so you must adapt. Not to mention other things like oil on the road/corners, sand on the road/corners and so on. 50penny is sometimes the best you can do on regular, crowded roads. And you must always have a reserve in terms of speed, torque and brakes. Just my humble opinion after a 4000km trip across Europe.
