Why is it that when you get too close to the right edge of the road, it's hard to pull it back?
Because to go left you need to cut the wheel a bit to the right to initiate the lean. When you're just at the right edge you can't help but be aware there isn't room to do that.
I had a little brief off road excursion on one of my regular routes yesterday. I was too close to the edge, and it just started going over, so I went with it rather than fight it. Thankfully the ditch was smooth and grassy, and the beer bottle I ran over didn't break. I was able to compose myself and pull back on the road without damage to man or machine. But it could have been much worse had conditions been different. I was probably going around 20 at the time.
Definitely did the right thing. If you try to ride back onto the pavement, unless you can arrange to come at it at almost a right angle, you are almost certainly going to crash.
