Cornering

Post by Jazzscot »

Found a good wee site that explains cornering.

I know most of us know this stuff already but it doesn't do any harm to revisit the basics from time to time.

Besides providing actionable details for professional racers, the app is meant to be used by casual enthusiasts looking for bragging rights. Users who post an epic commute time on their bike can also share their stats on Facebook and Twitter.
That would be like posting a video on youtube doing wheelies on a public road next to the street sign. :lol:

Nice idea though, but I do wonder who else has access to the data.

I've seen the next few frames...he's on his butt with the bike up the road. That's not cornering, it's falling with style!
