Reaction Time / Don’t Blink

[Motofool]

"In between these (predictive input / reactive input) are what we call predictive-reactive inputs, which are planned responses to unplanned situations. Think of these as anticipated damage control, your emergency Plan B. Like wearing a helmet, they are there when you need them.
.........
To put these Plan B inputs in perspective, the 0.3 to 0.4 seconds is, literally, the defining amount of time to save it if at all possible. Picture running wide in a corner. At 30 mph you are traveling 44 feet per second, in a 10-foot wide lane. A 0.4 second blink is 17.5 feet; more than enough to catalyze a panic-induced error. Well-trained riders also know that’s enough time to switch to Plan B, the predictive-reactive maneuver, to save the situation.
........
Crank up the velocity to MotoGP speeds and a lot can happen in the blink of an eye. Professionals train to ensure their Plan Bs are second nature. The rest of us should, too." - Keith Code
