Guest Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Hi guys, Im new to this whole biking thing, been driving for years and years. Only been on a motorbike once when I was 5 I have a bike theory test booked for tomorrow since its pretty straightforward and the test centre is so close, then I'll be booking my CBT. Main reason for this whole post though... Do I need any gear for the CBT? They say to bring boots that cover the ankle, but is that it? I know you can borrow a helmet, but clothing wise I only have jeans and pullovers. Probably not the safest thing to wear on a bike. Do they usually have jackets to borrow or should I go out and buy a bike jacket? If so, can anyone recommend a cheapish one that actually works?
