  1. My award goes to the old codger of a sunday driver. I was taking 3rd exit at a normal roundabout, indicating and as i come to the second exit the idiot pulls out, so i stand the bike up hard on the brakes he then sees me and stops on the round about so i end up sideways behind his car while he is looking in all his mirrors looking for me on the floor, luckily stayed on the bike no harm done and he pulls away with no indication of a sorry at all

  6. I would start in novice, get your confidence again settle in and if your feel up to it ask to be moved to inter
  7. My nomination goes to the pedestrian that i passed on 3 occasions today while in the car and on each time he called me a w**ker and gestured too, so i pulled down a side road dead end where he was heading towards and when i saw him gave him a beep to come either explain or call me a w**ker again and he looked over and styled it out like he didnt see me and carried on his conversation, ignored the second beep and me calling oi. Never seen the guy before and im never out in the car apart froma trip to asda once a week, now we have a lil auto golf for the other half to learn in. I wasnt speeding or driving like a tool so whats the craic? Really raged me for a minute or two until i found a country lane and had some fun
  8. Yes declare it or you can call the courts and ask if its still valid. If not then say nothing unless it asks of any criminal convictions ever. If you end up in the slammer its criminal, even if its for something like not making sure your child goes to school and you get sentanced by a court, but never arrested just asked to attend. As for insurance i dont remember a quote that i havnt been asked for non motoring criminal convictions, because i ask myself what the hell it matters everytime
  9. Cars and bike no need but like stu says lgv's yes
