You'd be glowing?

I'd just be annoyed beyond the hell of upside-down death.



Good luck when it comes round again. Get a morning's tuition if you can. It helps to slip u back into 'ride to win' mode.

Well, hopefully you've blown all your nerves on that one and will find yourself calm as a cucumber for the next. Good luck for it.

Don't bother waiting for the re-test or ringing them. Get to the DSA website every day & check for cancellations, sometimes there's one for the next day but you have to act quick. Best time to check is just after 4pm when they've had notice of tomorrows cancellations.

They cancelled my test 4 times - bad weather, on strike, too windy and then they had no hire car available to follow me! I offered them my car but they refused. Believe me I know how wound up you can get from cancelled tests.

It was only by accident I found you can check for cancellations yourself each day on the website, as soon as I did that I managed to get a re-test within a few days... the one they automatically offer you where I live is always 5-6 weeks away.

I ended up taking the test the last Friday before Xmas, passed & rushed straight off to the dealer to px my CBR 125 for my SV 650 Sport... best Xmas present I've bought myself in years - lol.

when on the test the examiner kept asking if i was resting my foot on the brake he got me too stamp it but too no avail he told me the test was over an i had to wait about half an hour for the instructor to come for me (couldn't ride back)for some reason,when back at the training school they had the seat of and said the (brake) switch?? had gone there was nothing i could do at the time an there was a lady that was having a test with them at 3.37 hope they got it sorted cos it would be a very expensive day for the schoo; otherwise
