Get up to speed and give a push on the bars (we'll use a right turn/swerve) and you'll see how quickly it moves. Push on the right bar and pull on the left and the bike will turn so fast it almost falls out from under you...so start out lightly and move up from there...push right go right, push left go left (and you pull on the opposite bar at the same time).

All good stuff. Thanks for the great input guys! Pretty much what I was thinking & practised. Keep vigilant well ahead. Counterswerve technique. Use body english and just like in racing cars -- it's all about where you're LOOKING!! You go where you look.

Be on your toes and off the seat. Going staright or in a corner if it's something you can't go around be on the gas. Not wide open but just enough so that the forks aren't loaded that if it's something that you'll hit from the axel down hopefully you'll go over it. If you can't go around it and you hit the brakes chances are you'll go over the bars. If it's higher than the axel I hope you have gear on.
