30 is too slow

[Guest]

So I renewed my CBT yesterday after originally passing back in 2015 on a clutch/gear but not setting foot on a bike since, and tbh did not enjoy the experience and felt unsafe.

Yesterday I did it on a scoooter, yes I know but who cares. What a difference. Different training school this time too.

Totally enjoyed it and took to it like a duck to water. Shoulder checks, road positioning all spot on. I left with a massive grin on my face.

Scary thing is that after 20 minutes on the road 30mph felt way too slow

I'll bomb about on a PCX for 12 months then decide which way to progress.

Only 1 dick on the road who didn't want to give way to us, yes it was BMW driver.

Congrats on completing your CBT again......and with the new bike......

30mph does feel slow, but it's amazing how quickly a dangerous situation can occur....and suddenly 30mph feels too fast.... I was young once, so I'll not preach.....but over time you start to appreciate that the limits are there for a reason. I stick to the lower limits religiously now.....but, the national speed limit?.......

30 MPH feels really really fast if your brakes fail

You can lose a lot of skin and still break bones etc at 30!

don't worry i won't be an idiot and get carried away. i'll be sticking religiously to the limits and conditions. Too many cameras in london to even think of getting cocky.
