Hello!
I'm currently just a pillion (to rubberduckofdeath) but I am hoping to complete my CBT course and DAS test this year. I spent the best part of £1k getting leathers, lid etc so I could ride safely with him (he wouldn't let me on the back until I was well protected!) so now I feel i'm ready to bite the bullet and take the test myself. I've always been interested in bikes and now I have protective gear and enjoy the thrill of riding as pillion, I really want to ride myself. Any advice / tips to get me started would be most appreciated! Thanks! Cat ![]() |

Welcome!
My advice is to go out and practise using the clutch on his GSXR1000 he's got there. It wont hurt you, promise ![]() Na, seriuosly - riding bikes is a completly differant experiance to riding pillion; you'll have much more respect for how much work goes into riding even if you decide that after the CBT riding really isnt for you and your happy being a pillion! My girlfreind maria (miss alpinestarhero) has been expressing wishes to learn to ride...anyone got a CG125 we can borrow ![]() Matt |
