Again, I can not tell how grateful I am! You teach like you worn born to it. Thank you so much again!
Great stuff, as always!! I love your videos! Thanks for sharing your insights. They are always helpful regardless of how long a person has been riding. I started riding in 1977, and I'm still learning. Never stop learning!!
All the training bodies in the UK do, and have done and for nearly 100 years, will train to the limit point on bends . Nothing new there at all. I cant understand why you have never seen or heard of it before.
@@DobroPlayer12 OK so not from the UK but many countries follow the safe systems that we have had since the 1930s here in the UK. some Countries have adopted or adapted them. I am surprised that is not more well known.
Great video! Your explanation of the curve of the toad coming together and touching has made perfect semse and in an easier explanation that some channels ive watched! Makes perfect sense! Thank you!
Your explanation of cornering is the best explanation I've heard and it's helping me to understand why I keep fifty penceing corners. I can;t wait to get out and start practicing.

Another great blend of down-to-earth practical demonstration and clever analysis of perception-interpretation-judgement-response. Some people just want hear and see what to do, I like to also hear how/why. These needs are met in this chapter. Thanks!
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.
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 👌🏻
Ive always known the limit point as the vanishing point which to my mind makes a little more sense. Out on the real road its exactly that, the point at which you can no longer see beyond. But what ever you call it, it works a treat.
Another exceptional video. One issue I'm having is finding a proper lean angle (and speed) on my heavy 1200cc Triumph Bobber without feeling the rear tyre slip.
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.
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.
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.
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
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. 😊
Стоило изучить английский язык, чтобы смотреть Ваши видео и понимать не хуже, чем на родном нам обоим Русском.😂 Но за понятные и подробные объяснения огромное спасибо! 🤜🤛
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..
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 !
Peripheral vision always messes with me riding through mountain canyons, I get the feeling the mountains are coming at me, it's really something, that and riding through long tunnels
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.
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.
I use "countervision"... when going into a left turn I turn my head to the right in order to focus my vision solely on the left eye, right turns I turn my head to the left in order to focus my vision on the right eye.
These videos are brilliant, but you need to practise, practise, practise, practise. No matter how many videos you watch. You will only get better, safer and more confident if you practise.
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.
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
I had to wait 3 months from my Dutch AVB exam (riding on terrain with slaloms etc) to finally getting on the road to start the classes for the AVD exam (in actual traffic) I did the u-turns and figure 8 really well on the avb, even got complimented that the figure 8 was the prettiest he had seen in a while. But now everytime i have to make a u-turn i get terrified of dropping the bike which, u guessed it, makes me drop the bike :) the issue i have mostly is the footbrake making the bike go shock-y, plus my fixating on the things i don’t want to collide with 😂 when i re-did it at the driving school with the cones it was fine again, not perfect but much better, but when i have to do it in a natural setting like on a parking lot or something i just chicken-out and i can’t seem to get over it😭
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?
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😂
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...
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.😅
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.
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
Hit a tranmission slick around corner and lost grip on tires I felt it loose ot and just slide on. 1st corner fall. Thankfully i was only about 20 -Slow speed, from a red light.
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.
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.
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.
Hi. Thank you for information. “Although my motorcycle has cornering ABS, if I go fast to corner, I feel the rear end sliding when I brake hard on the rear brake.” Can you please advice for me
All good until you are leaned so far over there is no room to adjust for a sudden hazard spotted at the last second, or a patch of fresh antifreeze or diesel fuel.
I fifty pence corners all the time. Because i'm bored and choose to practice changing lines mid corner as a skill development exercise in order to alleviate the bordom. 😇 Best bike channel on youtube.

Спасибо мой друг
Most of the time when I notice that I'm going wide on a turn I just lean it using banking technic. Wokrs perfectly though you need fast reaction time.
❤ Look - turn your head (and helmet! 😊) - and twist your upper body a bit into the bend (to support looking and riding through a bend). 🎉
In my country if you look only far and foward you will crash reason being is the fng potholes.

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.
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.
