Failed my Mod 2 test today
Two minors and one major.
The major was on a NSL single carriageway, large bends and quite wide roads. I saw a red triangle sign showing an N bend, and underneath it a white rectangular sign saying 'Max Speed 40'.
The weather conditions wern't great. There was some rain and a fair bit of wind, so i decided to follow the recommended speed of 40mph. After a couple of bends i hear on my radio 'Matt, its a 60mph road'.
I failed the test by 'failing to make progress' on that one occasion.
Pretty gutted really, because the rest of the ride was near perfect, and i still feel i was in the right for travelling at 40mph because it was a speed i felt comfortable at. Even if i was out on my own i wouldnt have gone much faster than that judging by the conditions.
I havnt had a brillaint week, and passing the test today would have been the boost i need.
