Crash, bang, whollop mod 1

That didn't quite go to plan

I panicked when doing my emergency stop and snatched at my brakes, locking up my front wheel and I came down in a heap. Thankfully my kit did it's job and I'm ok but sore and I have a cracking headache.

I'm just so annoyed with myself. I've practiced it over and over hundreds of times and I just let my nerves get the better of me

[Magpie84]

I killed my helmet as well as the bike

[NeilM]

Unlucky.

Get back on quick

Better luck next time.

[mikestrivens]

As above, get back on quickly. At least you didn’t do a [mention]Via[/mention]

[Beansie]

Hope your ok, my girlfriend fell off on her first cbt and I was gutted to see how upset she was (it was the day the Moto gp was cancelled!) like others have said get back on as soon as possible and get your confidence back!

And that, boys and girls, is why we wear helmets. Imagine that was your face! Glad it did the job.

Back on the horse - you’ll get it next time!

[Guest]

Not nice but good your ok, helmets easily replaced heads aren't.

[Tiggie]

ouch!! could of happened to anyone of us though, don't spend time dwelling on it, you already know what went wrong, move on and focus on acing it next time

Bloody hell, Gel........ When you do things, you do 'em in style! At least you're (relatively) OK and didn't "Via" yourself. Just treat it as one under the belt. You won't do that again! Truth be known, I bet each and every one of us on this board has done something similar. You weren't the first and you won't be the last. Just keep on bikin'.

[Slowlycatchymonkey]

Oh no

Don’t beat yourself up over it, mod 1 is a weirdly intense process. Sounds like you’re concussed, check your pupils are equal and reactive to light. If you vomit go to A&E. If you are concussed be careful driving etc for the next couple of days or so.

Better luck next time.

As already mentioned know how you feel

Hope you feel better soon, glad it was just kit that took the damage.

[mikestrivens]

[mention]Magpie84[/mention] there is even an emoji for you

[Bender]

As above, get back on quickly. At least you didn’t do a @Via

 

I disagree, that was definitely[mention]Via[/mention], just without the bike landing on top of him, kinda a half via at worst, bad luck, hope your back on the bike soon.

[learningtofly]

There you go - you're a proper biker before you've even passed Mod 1!

Hope your aches and pains go quickly, and better luck next time. As a matter of interest, what did the examiner do?

[Mickly]

Ouch

Seems you did on Mod 1 what many old timers (including myself) did within days of riding off on a sports moped L plates flapping in the breeze and no training at all !

At least it was in a controlled environment.

New helmet as an early Xmas prezzie and you’ll be good.

[Mickly]

The absolute best (worst) was when mate #1 on a SS50 was in front, spotted fit bird ( attractive young lady ) he knew and slammed on his brakes, Mate #2 on AP50 failed the swerve test and ran into the back of mate #1, me on FS1E passed swerve test and just missed them both.

Fit bird was unimpressed as mates #1 & #2 started kicking lumps out of each other as I tried to keep the peace:

So I suppose the only ones to blame for your little off is the complete tits before you who road like twats and forced the Government to introduce such stringent tests.

Don’t let it put you off - it’s a rite of passage and you’ve earned it.

[Slowlycatchymonkey]

Yep I agree MP84

I also think if you’re brave enough to post your epic helmet grazing glide on here you’re brave enough to ace any poxy (aka extremely fussy, demanding, easy to fail) motorcycle test without concerning yourself about the tough stuff you are.

Go for it, we need you (would display WW2 poster with strong arm woman here but don’t seem to have any to hand) and I look forward to seeing your shiny new helmet on the road

[Tango]

Ooopppss.......better luck next time.......glad to see your kit did its job......

[Stu]

Ouch! not good glad you're OK

[rennie]

Ooops!

Don't let it get to you, get back on and try again

[JRH]

Oooppps that's not good [mention]Magpie84[/mention] but glad you are relatively OK.

Bike and helmet can be repaired / replaced.

[elizabethf]

Ahhh I saw your post on Motorbike Women!

Glad your ok. With every incident or fail I find it's usually my pride that takes the worst battering!
