There is no way to over come them, but if i was you (not saying from experience) but i would sit down and prepare yourself mentally. Just think through what you have to do, everything you have been taught. Play over some situations in your head and relax.

Also wrap up warm, the cold is the last thing you will need on your mind.

And good luck!!

very few people can overcome nerves..

relax and concentrate (easier said than done) but you have started out with a good attitude anyway.

good luck Thumbs Up

good luck, as for the nerves it's all in the mind. The trick i used was to think that the test was just a pre-test run with another instructor who would then tell me if he thought i was up to test standard. That way i wasn't worried about passing or failing as i viewed it only as a trial run with my test a month later if it all went well.

EDIT: Outcome was i passed first time as i wasn't worried

I see your from Mirfield, where did you do your test?

Bradford/Halifax?

I wanted to do my test in Huddersfield, but they don't do bike tests there and ended up in Halifax at the top of the town.
