Just like JoshRS i failed on the uturn too.. although this examiner was grumpy and if was an other examiner i woulda passed...


... uturn:


checked both sides.. started to pull away did u turn, thought great.


go back in to the room after and he said i moved to far forward and shoulda done another life saver :(


Other than that was perfect :( gutted and now i gotta scrape cash togather to try again.. now i am gonna miss thing next month


oh well beter luck next time..


A very angry Josh

Sorry to hear that Josh, bit of a bummer to be sure :(


Mind you it's not all bad - atleast you got the hardest part spot on which was the control of the bike itself and didn't put a foot down! I'm sure you'll nail it next time fella, and when you do it'll be all the more sweeter (I failed my first test on the u-turn as well :wink: ). There'll always be more meets that you can go along to so don't worry about it.

I know the feeling. I had a bit of a w**ker of an instructor. The other lad passed when I failed and the instructor thought it'd help somehow by taking the piss, until I told him he was being rude and if he spoke to all his students like that he wouldn't be in business much longer!


Anyway, it's a killer and peed me off for a day or so. When I failed mine I 'got over it' by realising that I got to ride a bike again soon and do some more training (because I couldn't afford my own bike at the time)!!


One day it'll just be in the past and you'll think "that examiner was a bit of a tit, but I've passed now so it doesn't matter".

I remember being so pissed off about failing my first test that I beat the instructor back by a good 2 mins every time I saw him gaining I overtook some more cars.


Better luck next time!

Woah! Try borrowing a bike?


Sucks to hear that you had a tw*t of an examiner though. I know it doesn't help, as i too am a young poor person using every single penny i have to pay for petrol, but like its been said you have everything nailed, it just wasn't your day today. There's a reason for everything :) Good luck for next time dude!

Its so disappointing when you think you've done it OK to find out you failed


least you know what to expect next time round, best of luck with it

Sorry to hear that :(

It is very clear as to observations on U-Turns..........


Standstill U-Turn Mirrors, Lifesaver then Turn :D


Rolling U-Turn Mirrors, Lifesaver move forward then Mirrors another Lifesaver then Turn :D


Were you clear as to what the Examiner needs to see?


Like all Excersises on Module 1, you need to Imagine you are on the road, so simple things like moving from a standstill need effective observations, even on the site :D


£150 sounds expensive for a Re-Take Module 1? £140 for Bike Hire and Instructor? Is that a full day?

He said treat it as if its a public road , on my public road i was on a 2mile straight no car in sight, no turnings at all and i was in the middle.. there was no chance what so ever of a car coming :P lol..


my own fault and im pretty angry at myself but oh well one of those things.
