haha yup! First and last time...
Along for the ride...
Thats happened to me a couple of times, when I write it out and then re-read it, and realise that my arguments contradict each other and explanation has just made me understand it better and that I am wrong. But it still really sucks to admit it.

I'm never wrong.
There are varying degrees of 'right', however.
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

I'm never wrong neither, cos you are only wrong when you have to admit it, at which point you have changed your mind so you're right anyway

I prefer taking leaning and countersteering out of the equation and just using the force. It works for me.

oh, it works for everybody.

Riding yesterday it occured to me that the input required on my (sports) bike is really small. And this maybe where the confusion lies.
You read all this stuff about 'positive forceful inputs on the bars'. Fk Me! If I gave a positive, forceful input on the bar I'd be on my ear.
It is interesting to be aware of the technique and that you do do it ,but after that just get on with it.
More and more I'm finding what I do with my feet and legs helps me feel connected to the bike and register what is happening where the rubber hits the road

When I'm on the pace I'll definitely give a forceful input on the bar, dropping the bike on it's ear quickly is better for the bikes composure opposed to gradually tipping it in. The bike responds positively and sharply.
Hardcore Biker
I'm not suggesting I don't - its just it doesn't feel like a 'forceful' input nor terribly big. That may be cause I am a big strong boy
Forum whore
In comparison to swinging a hammer you're right, it's not forceful or terribly big. However in relation to normal steering input it is.

Strange. Impossible to countersteer and yet it can be steered.
Anyone care to revise their strongly held opinions?

Well for starters it is one wheel, it is not a bike. And then you need to show him actually steering it in some sort of controlled fashion, not just sticking his feet out.Strange. Impossible to countersteer and yet it can be steered.

Id pay him $100 to go as fast as he can and slam on the brakes though, that would be some funny viewing
