Even experienced riders tense up mid-corner, and it's not a mindset problem or a knowledge gap — it's an involuntary bracing reflex triggered by the counter steering input itself, and normal street riding rarely does anything to retrain it. In this video, we break down what that reflex actually is, why years of ordinary riding can leave it fully intact, and the deliberate, low-stakes practice that actually raises your threshold for it. If you want structured drills to build this into your own riding, check out the MCrider Field Guide and Road Strategy Book — prepay for a full year of Pro membership and both come included, printed copies mailed to you plus digital access, at MCrider.com/Member
