Well, the time has finally come.

I am bricking it now :?

I have already done my CBT and passed my theory test so this will be the last hurdle.

If I fail I will let you all know tomorrow night :( but if I don't post any message you will know that I am out having blast :D

Wish me luck!!

Good luck. Relax. Take a wee before the test. (it helps you relax apparently) :roll:

Anyway I did and passed first time . So in the sample of 1 it's 100% effective.

Anyways, good luck - be careful during the e stop if its wet. Just cover the rear brake dont bother using it for risk of locking it. Please correct if you disagree, i am by no means an expert!

RELAX you are allowed a few mistakes so if u know you have done something wrong just brush it off & carry on you can still pass.
i got five minor mistakes on my test, in five different areas still passed so no worries there.

Good luck fella :wink:. Take it easy and do things at your own pace. Passed mine first time with 3 minors. Left the bloody indicator on after pulling out for 20 secs. he was gonna fail me if it got to 30 :shock: . i just push it off every min or so now, don't know why, force of habit i guess :lol:

casey ball !!

was/is a leather football..a proper one- usually laced up to keep the bladder in !!! (and the laces hurt ya head if u happenned to head on them !!)
and it wanna coated in vinyl so it soaked up the water and got heavier and heavier as the game went on !!!

twas rail fottbaa lad !!......

Oh and here in Stoke- home of the best footballer ever to walk the earth (sir stanley ) it is said that he could cross the ball and spin it so the laces were away from you when you headed it!..now there's skill !


to get back on the thread- it is lookin ominous- urely if passed wudda been on here to shout about it by now- unless still scootin around in the dark !!

GOOD NEWS!!

I've passed my test. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sorry I never posted last night but I was out having a blast around on me bike. It was 10pm when I got home and then gave the wife a detailed account of how it was and what it felt like to be on two wheels.

I got quite good weather for my test with just a wee spot of rain but nothing to worry about. The test itself went very well and I would have had no faults had it not been for a stupid b***h in a Corsa nipping in front of me at a set of traffic lights while I was about to turn left :evil:

Never mind though as the main thing is that I passed. now I have exactly a month to get some on road experience under my belt before the Knockhill round of BSB which I will be riding to with friends.

Thanks for all the messages of support from you guys & gals.
