Cornering - apex - explain?

And their it is in a nutshell.

Even includes my mantra, "always be able to stop etc etc"

Splendid.

great post stormer UK, the breakdown of the processes is so sensible..
was a bit lost earlier on with what seemed like a point unexplainable from mstrs but perseverence and all that seemed to clear it up.. sometimes I find I am unable to explain the processes by which I ride but some of you guys are able to put it onto a way that I recognise my own actions and understand things a little more.. I'm a fan of tuition and being instructed by those with more experience and skills than I, and agree with that pearl that the good instruction stays with you long after the bike has gone.. great posts folks :-)

Great image. Safest way to corner on the road. You don't have an apex until you find the exit, you can't find the exit without vision. A late apex gives you more vision which is so handy on Christchurch's damaged roads or for cars cutting the centre line. Not slow either because the bike can be stood up earlier and you can get on the gas earlier and harder if you want to keep the pace up.
