This may sound daft but I have not been riding that long but I wanted to see what others thought of my tip for new riders who are not that familiar with counter steering.

Find a quiet road with quite sweeping bends and ride one handed. When you are coming up to a left hand bend take you left hand off the grip and gently pull the right hand bar end towards you. When turning right push your right hand away from you.

I find it a good way of learning the basics of how you have to counter steer to ride a bike properly.

If you do try it, go steady as I am not liable should you bin it !!
