Hey guys! Finally got my CBT over and done with on Sunday =) Arrived at the school bright tailed and bushy eyed for 8am... hungover from my 25th bday party the night before. Nice. Was myself and my brother learning on CG125s and a lady learning on a rev-n-rip. Two instructors. Spent a good few hours in the baking sun on the playground learning basic maneuvers and just getting to grips with the controls. Did a bit of classroom work, then it was out onto the road - myself and my bro with one instructor, then the lady with the other a while later. Spent a good two hours cruising about Leicestershire before finding an industrial estate on which to crack out our emergency stops and u-turns. Was a pretty strenuous day, especially because of the boiling weather and the hangovers, but it was well worth it. Great fun - I'd consider it not just useful but a really fun day out. I would THOROUGHLY recommend Leicester Motorcycle Training of Syston. Andy and Karen, the two instructors, were extremely supportive all through the day. The lady who was learning alongside us managed to send her scooter flying through the air and into a metal fence, completely knackering the front of the bike. What did the instructors do? They made sure she was okay, laughed about it, sat her down with a cuppa tea and a paper then vanished for half an hour returning with another scooter. They got her straight back on and by the end of the day she was confident on the road and passed her CBT. I will definitely be returning to this company for my DAS =)
