Default Re: On a more serious note.....

nyar!

Things go from bad to worse - the SV I wanted has been taken off eBay and theres no response coming from the seller either! The hunt continues. I want an 01/02 low(ish) mileage blue model, in case anyones wondering....

As an aside - I didn't know the DSA (lovely people) publish their test routes on their website? Did anyone else?!

If you look up the test centre, theres a list of funky links on the right hand side that can quite easily be missed!

http://www.dsa.gov.uk/DTCInfo.asp?id...38&ShowRoute=0

Not much use if you take a wrong turn I spose though

Just give the indicator a double click after each turn just to be sure. If you are on the ball you should be ok.

I think i've only left my indicator on once, in the few years i've been biking. Embaressingly it was on the Thames Valley ride to box hill, attended by some of the GM. Dan was in front of me so im fairly certain rigor was behind me. He had the class not to say anything....seems unlikely he didnt notice!

I remember that. We were behind you. You left it on for miles.

I think your pants were so funny that I must have forgotten about it when we stopped.
