Hovis, you really do push your luck!

She's got a Kymco scooter for the first 12 months, then it'll be a 125 varadero. I think she'll end up with my DRZ. Our problem is that with her being 6 foot tall, finding bikes big enough!

Evie's licence has taken just under two weeks to come, I was a bit concerned that we'd left it a bit late and wouldn't be able to get her on the road just after her birthday. So as long as she passes, it's all come good.
no not Libby - not yet. My daughter Becky was 16 in January but we were skint (didnt realise provisional licences were £50). Sent off paperwork couple of days ago so will be a couple of weeks til its back. Gives DD a chance to rebuild her bike. She has a TS50. Then we hope to get her a Varadero next year. Then after passing test will probably pinch the sv as the raptor is too wee for her and she has not a chance in the world of using the Tornado lol

NO!!! (no one rides the triumph, not even Mr Lou).
But you can borrow the DRZ as I've had it restricted in preparation! (only cos it was free to do when I bought it! Forward planning or what!)


KitKat, I nearly passed out when I realised that her licence was £50, (plus the £4 at the post office for checking it, which was well worth it as it was rejected first time).

Dont be nervous about the CBT, theyre fine and quite good if you have a half decent instructor..
Might get stuck with a bunch of neds though..

You cant really fail them, theyre more about infomation..
Ask alot of questions while you're there too..

Just need to finish rebuilding the engine then put it back in the frame then get it MOT'd so not much to do

And no she is not getting to use the SV and definitely not the Tornado
