Motorcycling also helped me to always look ahead and through the corners, not just in front of my wheel. I would say the skills do translate especially for exploring the limits of traction and being aware that nobody is looking out for you.

Oddly enough while on my bicycle, I was also hit head on by a motorcyclist who missed his apex and target fixated on me while I was sitting at a stop sign.
