Well done GG. Hope you get nice weather for the weekend
Firstly......damn, was it that obvious???

Secondly, I'll still be on the CG til the Babyblade is ready, but the guys at the training centre have said I can go up there for a ride on one of their 500s when the babyblade is ready so that I don't have to go straight from the CG to a fully faired and lovely bike. They said, use ours to get back in big bike mode..COOL

Maria, when you come to do yours, don't stress....it's not at all scary. The Mod 1 is fine.....just remember remember remember to look where you want to go when doing your figure of 8 and u-turn and I think this is really important to remember....when doing your figure of eight, if you think you are going to hit the yellow cone, just go around it. You are allowed to do this once and will only get a minor........then remember to look where you are going and you'll be fine.

I was terrible the morning of my Mod 1 so no idea how I pulled it out of the bag!

Good training centre You have there, Good to know some are more interested in good riders rather than the buck they can earn. (thats not a sarky comment either)

Yep.....oooh, I can go on the motorway now if I take the L plates off the CG. YAY.....I can take the L plates off!

Anyway Tony....more importantly, when are you going to take me out??? I haven't forgotten the offer of imparting some of your massive biking wisdom to me .

I might surprise you like i did Dan and Squirrel_Hunter....I'm faster in the bends and lean the bike way more than either of them were expecting but I want to make sure my road positioning is good, entry and exit of bends is good and that I am using the gears effectively.

I'll pay in petrol and tea/coffee xxxxxxxxxxxx
