I thought some sad person was asking how to "turn on" a bike
That's how I read the subject title too and I wasn't sure if this topic was going to be NSFW, so of course I clicked on it.

And walking is simply a matter of controlled falling forward. If you didn't stick one foot ahead of the other you'd fall flat on your face because you're off balance. Or drunk.
They aren't wrong. Countersteering is more or less involuntary. We do it without realising it. I rode motorbikes until my mid 30,s and occasionally did it consciously to throw the bike into a tight bend at speed. The first time i rode a quad made me realise I was nudging the left bar to turn left. I don't get the turn even further left to put it back upright again though.
