It is centrifical force pushing outward. And so when you lean in, your are helped by gravitational force which counteracts the centrifical if you bend at the correct angle, which our brain is able to figure out pretty quickly and remember for a long time.

When a body moves round in a circular path, it is subjected to two equal but opposite forces, one acting towards the centre of the circular path, while the second acts away from the centre. In the case of the bicycle rider in a circular path, he/she needs to tilt his/her body inwards in order to balance the outward force.

There are two opposite forces acting on a body when it is going in a curve,centripetal and centrifugal force.The human riding a bicycle would fall if he did not bend.He does this for maintaining balance.

Centrifugal force. Same as one has to bend to a side when an automobile turns around a bend.
