Default Re: The revised bike test

reminds me of the ex landlord of one of my locals.

After 4 times the examiner had not stepped out. So I stopped at the ambulance that had now appeared and saw my examiner being stretchered in. I went back to the test centre and told them what had happened and another examiner thanked me and said "You can obviously ride and gave me my pass certificate"
Like all landlords Roger told a tale or two, but I do smile thinking of this one and just hope there was an element of truth
