Would you believe it, the first time I've locked up the back while training was last night, on my last lesson before the test!!!

Not so confident now .......

The examiner who tested me on my mod1 for which i failed by locking my back brake, told me not to use it and that the front would do the job.

Im sure you will be fine mate.

I have failed my 1st attempt because I didn't use back brake. I would suggest at least pretend that you are using it

Gonna give it my best shot - not go through the speed trap at 60kph at least rain is not predicted.

I saw a guy lock his back wheel on a MOd 1 and stil pass because he had the sense to let the rear brake off as soon as he felt it... and hence "maintained control of the bike"

I can only suggest the minimum of rear brake and keep your emphasis on using the front brake

also I know it sounds daft but during the avoidance manourvre once you straighten up and are heading for the speed trap look through and beyond it early to seek out the blue cone that you will be swerving around..dont dwell on looking at the trap- good luck

How did u get on??

[mikey69]

Passed first time

Went through the swerve at 50kph first time, swore I was slow so speeded up for the emergency stop - went through at 60kph

No faults - MOD2 here I come

[Susieque]

Well done you!!!

[gilly_uk]

Congrats m8

[sparkeh9]

when doing my mod 1 I locked up my back wheel and skidded slightly, but recovered. And I passed

[Remy]

Well done
