Hello there,
I'm new to the forums here so hello to all
Got my mod 1 on Sunday lunchtime doing about 3-4 hours training with my instructor before hand and just wanted to know if theres any tips or anything to calm the nerves cause I know for a fact I'll be bricking it haha!
I've watched people doing mod 1 on youtube theres a couple vids on there and looks reasonably straight forward well at least i hope its going to be!
Thanks in advance |

Deep breath before every stage. Take your time. Take rear observations as though you were on the road. Stabilise rear deflectors. Watch for enemy fighters. Stay on target. Stay on target. They came... from behind...

I passed my Mod 1 on Tuesday, although I thought I had no chance beforehand because my practice was getting worse rather than improving!
Simply put, the actual test centre is gigantic. You have all the time you could need and all the room. Take your time and take all the room and you won't have a problem.
Oh yeah, and the swerve is easy as long as you trust your counter-steer.
Good luck! ____________________ CBT 11/09/10! Theory Passed 12/10/10! Mod 1 Passed 08/03/11! Mod 2 passed 13/04/11!

Hello all,
Thanks for your good lucks! It was a good day! Passed
3 minors though for observations.
Pass is a pass I guess!
Instructor purposely made all the training harder so when we actually got to the test centre the actual manoevurs were a piece of cake!
Gonna book mod2 training and test tomorrow for the end of the month
Only 1 more hurdle!  |

Congratulations! It's an annoying obstacle to go around in order for you to do the road test. But It's nice to know that it is out the way, and now you can practice and have your full attention on what to do when riding on the road.
