Car & Bike licences?

Car first.

Then HGV 2nd

and Bike Test last

bike 1st..passed test in 1987
then car in 1992...and being honest it took 3 attempts to pass
but i very very rarely drive now so the g/f has the car

Car 1998 at 17
Bike 2004 at 23.

I wasn't even remotely bothered about bikes until a mate at work convinced me to do my CBT. I agreed, was hooked, and booked my DAS there & then!

Bike at 17 early '87. Car at 18 late '87

Never drove another car until I was 21, felt they were too dangerous (18 year old logic "Cor! Wouldn't want to end up like that Def Leppard drummer bloke! )

As a matter of interest if you passed your test before a certain date you will have a micro car license which means you have a car license[very small car license]
I'm unsure of the dates or size of car but it does exist and I only found this amazing fact out a week ago as one of the chaps I work with who only has a bike license[riding for 40years] had a bad off and when he returned to work he was driving a 4 wheeled car about the same size as a Smart with reverse gear,just small

Perhaps the more knowledgeable amongst you could throw some light on this fact

In the olden Days if you passed a bike test you were allowed to drive a three wheeled car under 8 CWT (officially with no reverse gear) as per the reliant robin, Morgan and issetta and mershermitte bubble cars

Took bike test and got another bike.

Wot he said, but did my HGV at 19 as I was in the TA at the time.

I got back into biking when the Mrs said I couldn't spend a lot of money on a BMW M3... Mate at work said "You'll have more fun on a bike at 60, than you will in that at 120." Which made me think, so I booked my DAS and about 5 weeks later I passed. I bought the SV the week before

Car test first, then bike after having kids - couldn't really justify riding round on a bike while pregnant!!

Couldn't afford to buy car when I passed my test SO decided to borrow my dad's brand new car as he was away. Piled in about 6 of my mates into the car and took it for a spin round Barry Island on two wheels (that's when I decided I WANTED A BIKE!!!). Needless to say, my dad read the mileage BEFORE he went away so when he came back from his course - who needs words ay?
