You've got to relax!

Don't grab the handlebars too tight if your nervous, grip the tank instead.

Talk or sing to yourself to clam yourself down.

And finally have fun!

Good Luck Thumbs Up

Relax and enjoy it.

Its a chance for you to show you can ride for 40mins with a sat nav telling you where to go.

You can do it.

Just remember your observation, your speed and positioning.

The only minor i got on my MOD2 was for pulling before i'd finished doing a lifesaver, instructor said if you start pulling away before you've finished looking there's more chance you'll crash if you see somthing at the last minute (IIRC)

you just need to relax, and not let it worry you - think of it as another lesson!!

+1 for talking to yourself. When I did my test I found that instead of just thinking about what I was doing, I thought out loud which had the effect of keeping me calm too.
If you happen to ride on a route you havnt been on, dont panic, just keep calm and look at all the road signs and markings. Your probably so nervous because you cant wait to get your full licence but tell yourself your doing exactly the same as when riding with your instructor.
Good luck Very Happy
