It's the sudden stopping that really suprises you..

Must admit I had to do an emergency brake & maneuver when a truck pulled out on me a few years ago in the pishhing rain & I was that the front did not let go, releasing the brake I had to turn quickly & I thought it would be all over rover, but nah, the bike just turned.
The comments about being relaxed & gently using your body weight are spot on. I did not slam the brakes on but fed them in very quickly & made sure the forks were unloading smoothly when i tipped the bike over. It's amazing how much you can process in a fraction of a second.
