STATEMENT -1 : A cyclist has to bend while traversing a turn on a horizontal road . and STATEMENT -2: Normal force acting on the tyres of bicycle has horizontal component speed, ( which provides the necessary centripetal force ) only when cycle is bent

Why does a cyclist bend inwards while riding along a curved road?

The inward bending of a cyclist while turning is due to

The passenger in car are thrown outwards when the car negotiates a curve, but the cyclist bends inwards, while negotiating the same curve. .Then this happens due to
