I've been riding some sort of motorcycle for 47 years. I've all ways owned a motorcycle since I was 14 years old. Hard core off road in my early years, not so much now. One thing that helped me in the beginning an older rider told me.

"When you see obstacles such as a large rock in the trail or some kind of debris in the road and you don't want to run over it...Don't look at it".

Look where you want your tire/wheels to go!

For sure on very tight single track where it's a few tire widths wide. For some reason your mind will steer you right into it if you look at the obstacle.
