In addition to being the standard mantra of the “race” line, outside-inside-outside is basic MSF BRC-recommended street cornering procedure. If you don’t believe the MSF, you can consult any of the standard street riding literature for further proof of its legitimacy.
The “apex” of a cornering arc is the point at which you are closest to the inside of the turn, and does not have to be at the very limit of your lane, nor should it. Leaving your lane in any way, shape, or form is not a requirement of this basic cornering technique. Starting from the outside puts you at a point in the road that gives you maximum visibility around the bend, as well as makes you most visible to oncoming traffic.
I don’t think anybody here so much as suggested using wind resistance as a brake replacement. Not sure where that came from.
Finally, I’m referring to the poor aerodynamics of a helmet turned perpendicularly to the direction of travel. I’m not referring to “head shake” when the helmet is facing forward. I wouldn’t argue this point as it’s a well-accepted and obvious fact of life on the road.
Rudeness is never warranted, especially not when you’ve misinterpreted that to which you are responding. It’s precisely the absence of rudeness and hostility that makes this community great. Don’t mess that up.
