Well folks

I have made the first step and passed my CBT.
I found this difficult having never have been on a bike before in my life but got there at the end of the day. The weather certainly did not help things as it rained all day with episodes of sleet and snow at times. I was hungry wet and freezing cold withy my non biker gear on.

Im now on the look out for a cheap and cheerful 125 to buy now so I can brush up and practice my basic skills.
Im also going to go in and do another days lesson riding on the 125 before deciding on what route to go down next.

Congrats. Same here about not being on a bike before, and I struggled pretty badly with clutch control, and gears, although wasn't bad by the end of the day.

What bike you thinking of getting? A CG125 ?

Yea
Im thinking of getting a CG125.
Hopefully by doing this I will get used to the bike that I originally started with and I can practice and improve on my basic techniques and road skills.

I have already started looking but there pretty hard to come by up here in sunny scotland.

I found the hardest part of the CBT getting used to pulling away on the bike (Not that I found anything easy)

Cheers
Stu
