  Keep your dang feet on the pegs ! Yes you heard me lol . Ok so what am I talking about ? Well let me paint the picture for you. When I took a motorcycle  course  years ago  they  taut us  to  come to a stop using both  brakes . Then you  put your feet down . Ok sounds normal right ? Ok let me go further  ,  now  your at the light  with  both your feet down  , light turns  green you start to  go  your feet are dangling  through the intersection  THEN! it happens  a smurf runs out in front of   you . You try to swerve  but  because  your feet are dangling  your bike wobbles unbalanced instead  of  steering  and manoeuvring.  You grab the front  brake  with the  handle bars  turned ,,,, SKUPUNK!! flop on the ground you go! What just happened ?  Simple you were not in full control of the bike.   Fast forw...

      All. The . Gear .All .The . Time. VS  Squid riders ?  Ok ATGATT makes sense  but what is a squid ? Well  you could say to be polite  anyone who doesn't  wear proper gear.

If we watch  world super bike races we see some of the vary best riders in the world . And yes the go down form time to time . Here is the scenar...

YOU GO WHERE YOU LOOK !

YOU GO WHERE YOU LOOK ! This is one of the most important  things for a rider to learn. 95% of all input to a rider is visual . It takes time to learn to commit to a corner . And on busy  traffic  roads its easy to  get distracted buy oncoming cars. We have to learn to see through the cars and to our point of reference . When you pick your line look well ahead . Do not look where you are look where you want too be. At low speed we need to learn to trust  the bike and let it do its job while we look where we want to be . Target fixation is what gets us into real trouble . Several times you can find accidents where two bikes crash  , the first  bike crashes and the second bike follows .Why? Because  the second rider  is looking at the rider ahead .  So how can we fix this problem? Well first stay sharp  stay in your skill level . If you feel your over shooting your corner just focus on where you want to be , you just...
