i passed first time, with no minors.. must be brilliant.

good luck on the re-test. i think a big chunk of it is down to luck on the day... unless your a numpty who can't ride.. and then it has nothing to do with luck

Just passed my test a few weeks ago nad failedon the u-turn so it was my nemesis to a point. I got my eyes opened recently so I understand now why its a fail. There was a girl doing a practice U-turn with Pro-Scot on a 500cbf. She put her foot down, got a fright and over compensated by trying to hoist the bike up with her right hand. Throttle opened, clutch dropped, bike smacks kerb, throws girl and bike ends up in someone's garden. The girl wasn't hurt (thankfully) but very very shaken.

CSM had me do 10 u-turns in a row on a fairly busy, narrow road. If I mucked one up, start again. Really good preperation...
