I know several experienced coaches who would disagree with that. The example I was given is an easy one to replicate. Stand next to your bike with your hands on the bars and pull the bike towards you until it reaches a typical cornering angle. Once you arrive there try putting pressure on your lower (inside) and your upper (outside) hand alternately. You'll likely find that when you pressure your lower hand the bike slips out but when you pressure your upper hand the bike digs in. Give it a try and see what you think!
