I realized that, sitting astride my stopped bike: Only my muscle-memory had forever kept me riding; I could not translate the words of this silly script into: What Got Done by the body (gravity + centrifugal +) re Where?/How? do you Press-instantly on handlebars! Try it sometime: por moi, Words failed. Kinda like trying to describe how-you-spit? re ..lungs, mouth embouchure etc. :-/

But I find most annoying--cf. the DMV example: When an ignoramus-on-the-topic: imagines that you Can roll-out, in simple-ass Boolean algebra, Any fucking thing that pops into your uninformed-on-topic, Brainz! (And an explanation to such a perp: is ever given grudgingly) ..if you're bound to edjumacate the perp despite his pompous assholery, in the First place. At DMV: one realizes that the poor clerk-at-window is NOT the proper recipient) of your urge to say ~~ Fuck Off! you unclear-on-the-Concept poseur--ever faking it all. (I'd still like to find out the 'author', that Official writer of shit), designed to maybe NOT renew a Permit, Evaluating: that which you have safely accomplished since--one's first bicycle, actually. / {{Sheesh!}}

It works for a motorcycle on the Interstate, but if one ever needs to take evasive action, or underestimate a turn ---> weeds, or worse...
