Well i say just, it was actually last Thursday but I only just got time to write about it. Before I begin, up until the CBT i had never ridden or sat on a motorbike in my life, i do however drive and have done for 5 years with no claims, so road theory is fine. I found the first part the hardest, when on the trainers compound, you're very cramped and it takes time for you to think about what your doing yet you're forever worrying about running out of space, plus out of 3 of us the other 2 were just renewing theirs which didn't help my confidence. All in all i was fairly happy with how it was going, just trying to stay positive and not let my mistakes wind me up. After some theory and a lunch break the ride out was so much easier, finally it gave me chance to enjoy myself. I literally got my certificate, got dropped off at my friends house and bought his Lexmoto Arizona off him, i was already insured on it as of the day before so i got to ride off straight away. Since then I've found out fairly quickly and painfully that the CBT is just a pebble in a very big pond, you learn next to sod all about riding on it, it really is BASIC training, i simply cannot believe they let 17 year old's with no previous road experience or theory knowledge do a CBT then just jump on a geared motorbike. After 3 days i managed to wipe out on a roundabout in the rain (no damage other than a bruised ego) and there's many occasions where i find myself thinking i could have done things better. It would seem i have allot to learn about riding a bike before i even think about going near MOD 1 and 2, i have until next spring mind.
