First, you need to understand that any training undertaken before a compulsory test is all about how to pass that test & NOT about how to ride a motorcycle.Second, you need to understand that your level of exciteability is statistically linked to your life expectantcy. The more 'excited' you are about passing this test then the more likely you are to be dead next weekend.Third, you should sit down & really think hard about why you want to pass this test. If there's still a lot that you unsure of then I feel you are far from ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You managed to give a reply totally out of topic of the kind of reply I was looking for. None of what you said was actually help full and a lot of people get excited for three mod 1 and 2.

Mr Fro Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 If you're riding to Herne Bog, watch out for coffin dodgers doddering about the place. If you don't have a bike, see if you can hire a one from the test centre to get yourself out and about on two wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
