Aaawww, that's a shame.

I failed my first test too but passed on the second. You'll go into the next one older and wiser. Try to get another morning's training before your test if it's in the afternoon. It helps.

Good luck with the next one!

In the words of some troublesome Scotsman----If at first you don't succeed,----
Better luck next time.

That's how I got one of my minors, bike kept on dropping out of second, one time it did it on a roundabout and earned me a "loss of control"... I ended up doing the whole test after that in second, made the hill start a bit more interesting...

At teh end of the day, even the best rider could fail on the day- take it on the chin and try it again. If it's any consolation, it took me 5 attempts to get through CBT
