Using buildings and the visual point
As you can see the houses are close up, so you might be thinking “Yes, I can see the road from here”. Think about the same scene if you were a considerable way away from that area.
By using your eyes to look up to the farthest point you could make your riding plans that much sooner and have no surprises. The farther you look the more skilled at observation you will become.
When apposing all houses and hedgerows give a first-class visual point which will confirm what the angles of the buildings are displaying.
Remember, Distance to the visual point and movement or opening up is the skill of reading a bend very accurately.
