Mod 1 tomorrow! Shitting it! Bit slow on the speed stuff and my U turn is shit! Loved the training though, went on an A road with the CBF today hitting 70 was so weird on a bike compared to a car, the acceleration on the cbf's was so much different!

I just paid £570 for DAS Mines basically similar, 9-4 2 days then Mod 1 on a 3rd day then aother day of training (maybe two) and mod 2 on the 5th day. Basically same as yours but not both tests on the same day! Good luck with yours! I managed to negotiate the price down, No CBT included though

Hellbuh, One of my mates had been riing a long time and just needed the tests. If you ring up the instructors/learning place you choose they will probably let you rent a bike for the hour of the test and escourt you down and give u a 20 minute brief warm up etc...Think my frind payed £120 to do that and the test, so it would be a bit cheaper than doing the whole DAS

Hey guys, I've had tons of deadlines the last few months due to final uni work but finally got the mular (money) and time to book my mod 1. Train commenses on the 7th,9th and 10th of June! Can't wait to get back on a bike after my CBT, seems so lon ago! But thought i'd post this as a "i'm back" type of thing

good luck mate!

Gods speed!

my instructor wqas quite good he said to me "no one is bron on bikes" and was patient! It wasn't untill i was on the road i was happy, hope i can do my DAS quite quickly now!

Friday is tomorrow Didn't realise the north and the south were THAT far apart Shit its a thursday - my bad :'( Good luck anywho!

i did mine last saturday, during the slow ride around i droped the bike and dint do the figure of 8 - tried but couldn't really nail it, on the road however i had 1 or 2 stalls but then i was fine! I also passed but i felt i was not good enough but as you've described think we are in the same boat! Go book ur theory! and well done on the CBT! hope you enjoied it

yeh it is south west, and i do geography as a degree I wrote south-west but for some reason changed it...meh! Hangover!

hope it went/going well! Pass?!

Hey guys, got my theory booked for nov 23rd and looking for a place to do my direct access. I live in Bath and the place i did my CBT charge £590 for exams, 2 days before each exam also and split it into two (do mod 1, then book mod 2) I was wondering if anyone knows anywhere else in bath/bristol area? Its possible to also do it in swansea, you guys been to any bike schools in these areas?! Places to avoid or you recommend! Cheers Dispersion!

yeh going shopping tomorrow to try someone unless i hear from kersh in the meantime Cheers for the advise guys!

aye mikey! I think gear is somthing you kind of get when u get spare money which in my case save's it going on drink/meals out but once you got it you got it! Once I've done my cbt I think i'm gonna slowly gather some gear together mainly because now its winter, bargin time!

Cheers guys! Also good luck in your Mod 2 Mikey, i see it's close upon you

Interested Kersh - I'll pop you a PM Size 10 btw And yeh Vans :

Hey guys, First post that isn't in the newbie section so be nice! I have my CBT in a week or so and curious wheather my Vans (trainers) would be suitable? I have about £60 spare to splash out on some boots and its very tempting but I am assuming I am going to fall in love with 2 wheels (which in my mind there is no doubt) is it worth buying a pair now? Anyone bought on the net and found a pair that's comfy? What kind of things should I look for? If you could recommend a pair around that bench mark that'd be great. Or if you think £60 is to little let me know as Safety is what I am after
