  1. I have the Sidi black rain evo as well for the very same reason! Thanks... I am defo going to find a pair of these to try. Much appreciated
  2. Haha yes that is exactly how I have been feeling... like a friggin ugly sister situation! Cheers I will check the boots and the blog out
  3. I am trying on just about everything on the shelf... touring, race the lot... to no avail! Thanks Bonniebird I will try to find the Sidi's as they are ones I haven't tried yet!
  4. Hi... I am really struggling to find boots to fit... I am a size 5 with slim to average ankle / calf measurents but if I can actually get my feet into them I can't fasten the buggers up! Is it just me having this problem or is it a widespread issue?
  5. I have the theory test on the same date and have really struggled to get the right learning materials! This is what I have found... The DSA DVD, it's a pack for £19.99 http://www.tsoshop.co.uk/bookstore.asp? ... KID=003568 It's the motorcycle theory pack... containing the Theory Test DVD and a Hazard Parception DVD it's IBSN is 9789999105477 The DSA do loads of different combinations of packs and some don't contain the hazard parception one. Hope this is of help to you and good luck
  6. Yep.. he did. I know what it was. I was approachina give way on a wide open junction which was on an slight hill. We was turning left. I looked right to see if was clear and it was so I theought no need to stop. I then had a second thought and decided to stop... while on a hill with camber todards the curb and I was in the priocess of turning. I the bike lent over and I couldn't hold it so made the executive decision, for somereason to do a sideways dive immediately turning into a backward roll. Ending up on my back like a stranded turtle! Not the look I was going for! I feel like a plank! But in a really silly and bizarre way it has calmed me down with the really stupid nerves!
  7. I am doing my DAS at the moment and have just completed day 2... I suffer really bad with nerves. I never used to be like this and don't know why I am now but they effect me really bad. This morning I just couldn't ride with it... the first hour was really bad. I started to do really well in the afternoon and then on the way back to the centre I dropped it at a junction! It is strange but I have a completely different slant on it now... my ego took a huge dent as now my instructor thinks I am a douche!
  8. I have not dropped a bike yet but I now know I will but this thread has made me laugh until I am crying! Please post more stories
  9. I love driving, I love cars and I am obsessed with bikes! I drive an Audi A4 Tdi. It's a few years old now. She is called priscilla!
  10. He had to catch me up on the road leading to the road about, so I don't think in this instance that I was in his blind spot however, by the time he had got as close to be as he did I doubt he could have seen me. I was pretty much stopped when he drove up my backside, inches if that from my back wheel where he started honking. Looking back actually it was really scary... I knew at the time if I lost y balance and fell off I would have been under that artic without doubt. I am now actually starting to dred seeing another at a roundabout, you know the more you think about it, it starts to worry you! I really don't want to have any fears like thta as I have been doing really well! Thanks for your reply Mighty Mariner
  11. Sometimes I think L plates cause more problems than they do assist... I hate them! lol I am leaning to flip the bird at 30mph+
  12. I will be wary of them in the future then on my bike.... in my car will be another story, I can feel a very slow drive coming on!!!
  13. I don't think you should have to apologise on behalf of a moron like that but thank you for being really nice! It was a proper big artic... you know the type that carries scrap. Thank you for you advice to about riding as I feel comfortable and not letting other road user's pushing me.... your the first person to offer that. I will actually remember that everytime I am out now... "while in that lane use it as your own" Thanks for that
  14. Please be assured I don't think that this is representative of HGV drivers
