While reading some moto stuff linked off from BARF today, I found this little paragraph and am puzzled.
"The MSF teaches their students how to get and maintain control of their motorcycles. What they fail, utterly, to do is teach their students how to REGAIN control if it is lost. Students should be told that if they ever lose control of their bikes (pop a clutch, for example), they are to SQUEEZE BOTH LEVERS! Fast! No thinking! React!"
Here is the web page...

Does the writer mean squeezing the clutch and front brake? I just imagine the result being the rider could lock up the front tire and possibly flip over the bike.
I'm sure I must be misinterpreting the instruction. Thanks for your input and any clarification.
