Just to add ..



I failed my cbt the first time around too, no shame in it, it happens. Donīt worry about it I have also failed my driving test too, it doesnt mean anything. I fully understand the frustration that goes with it, and the annoyed feeling of money being lost, but there is no hurry.

Do it in your own time. We arenīt going anywhere other then to support you 100%.

Yeah...the fact that the last two lasses doing it are having to come back probably backs this up! We worry too much Better to be overly cautious than overly confident though eh?

It is a lot to do in one day - I was so exhausted when we set out on the road I forgot to turn on the ignition - so when the bike failed to start after the 20th kick, it and I fell over in a heap boy did I feel silly!

Good luck for next week - you'll be fine once you've had time to rest and absorb what you learned today

Don't worry about it, it will happen no doubt.

I did the twice around the block version in '78 and still failed first time.

I'm glad I didn't have to have the additional pain of a kickstart, my CG has one and it's a right nuisance although to give her credit she does start first time


I really appreciate all you ladies piping up, tis good to hear other sides to the usual story
