1 for Avoidance, 1 for Slow Control, 1 for E Stop, 2 for Move Away Safely.
No idea what I done wrong with the Avoidance, Slow control or E Stop...
Oh and it was pissing it down.
But still, a pass.. Now Do i go thru Direct.gov and have a 2 week wait for Module 2, Or should I phone the place I done my CBT at, and see if I can get a spot earlier?  ____________________ K8 GSXR 1000

Why not set off at about 0900, if you can? This will:
- miss the worst of the rush hour traffic
- allow you to get there in bags of time
- give you time to go to a cafe and get a cup of tea, and warm up a bit before the test.
Make sure you wrap up warm and waterproof though as you want to be as comfy as possible on your test (therefore focusing on the test and not your wet crotch, etc.).
Of course if it's snow/ice forecast then really consider whether it's worth risking the journey at all.
Good luck if you do go for it  ____________________ '09 YBR 125 -> '92 XJ600 S Diversion -> '99 Hornet 600

If your test center looks like that I don't think they will let you do a Mod 1.
It's worth ringing before you leave for sure. ____________________ My Lane Position is always AWESOME!! |

Hah, it's a pass. Clipboard Man was probably just in a sulk because he was getting rained on.
You could keep checking back every day and see if you can get a cancellation. I got a next-day Mod 2 booking after passing Mod 1. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
