So don't do that. Good luck!

Good luck mate, relax and you'll be fine.

I was so nervous when I took mine, I couldn't get my licence back in the plaggy wallet because my hands where shaking.

Got on the bike closed my eyes and took some deeep breaths, pulled off, stalled it, took a few more deep breaths, started the bike and away I went.
Passed with 2 minors.

I PASSED!!!!

Thanks for all the support guys! Its really encouraging to hear all the comments!

2 minors, but **** that - who cares? Got my nice blue certificate, and they even send your licence away for you. Brilliant!


I passed the test, now having a celebration curry for my (late) lunch, AND a whole day off work (i thought i'd be finished by lunch time and back in the factory) - A good day so far!

Thanks to all at Abbey Rider Training (swindon) they have been brilliant. Had a morning of training today for free (had to pay for petrol and insurance but not for their time). Top guys!

Ha my mrs will get dragged round the bike shops this weekend. revenge will be sweet!

Well done.

Enjoy the bike shops, for real revenge take her round about a dozen bike shops then buy the bike from the first one you went to.
