 Posted: 16:49 - 28 Mar 2014 Post subject: Update, Mod 2 passed |
 |
|
I feel like perhaps I should say hello having been a member for a few months but only really posting comments now and again. As I've just passed my Mod 1 I feel like I should say a proper hello.
Passed on my second attempt and I'm so pleased. I took it on Monday just gone too but managed to boot a cone on the swerve test which was pretty annoying. I realised where I went wrong straight away, my clocked speed was 59kph which I controlled today and passed through at 51. Hopefully a lesson or two more and I'll be passing Mod 2.
Anyway, that's it, I really just wanted to tell some more people that I passed Mod 1
And Mod 2  ____________________ My Photos

cool, the Mod 2 is the easier one of the two, so best of luck for that.  ____________________ it is impossible to lick your own elbow...

Congrats! Just out of interest was it the left or right swerve test? Think it's quite a common thing to fail on, particularly if you dangle a foot out not wanting to ride the brake. ____________________ Yamaha MT-03 '08 (crashed)

Thanks
I had to swerve to the left. The examiner did say to keep my feet in this time. I don't think I was hovering on the brakes, certainly not conciously. ____________________ My Photos

Damn silly waste of a morning. Ah well, it's done, you can get on with actual riding. It'll be worth it when you hear those magic words "I'm pleased to tell you..." ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Good job
Took me two attempts as well - I went too slow on my first try
Three attempts if you include being refused entry for a flat tyre I got on the way to the test on one attempt
Mod 2 is a lot less stressful I would say - just stay as calm as possible and think ahead about what you need to be doing with signals/position etc so the examiners happy. |

Just passed mod 2, so happy No minors, only one observation that I could ideally get up to speed quicker but that was it. Enjoyed the ride round.
This is it, I'm out on my own...when I get a bike  ____________________ My Photos
