Don't worry about it he didn't mean anything personal. Good on you for recognising you are new and interested in learning. Ask questions, plenty of helpful people here.

The precise approach necessary to not cross the centerline will vary for every corner in different conditions.

Surely people are not out there on motorcycles on the road going round arbitrary corners thinking "hmm, now, that magazine ad line went here, so I will turn now..."

My thoughts also

I must not be the intelect that some of you guys are. I looked at the ad and thought, "Hmmmm, if I'm gently cruising up to it and it looks too easy speed up a little, if it looks like it'll end in tears slow down a little then speed up" Slow in fast out like me daddy taught me

Unless your a mormon few, fast in, almost lose it then brag about getting your knee down...
