Suprised about a few threads in here, i never realised people could fail it ive been driving a car for over 10 years now so road sense im as bad as anyone else with a license so didnt think id have to learn lane discipline etc so the main challenge would be the gears.... are they that difficult to grasp for a beginner? its not putting me off, im just suprised to read a couple of threads that people have been failed on because of geared bikes. oh, going to CBT in a couple of weeks (After payday!) cheers
