You'll be fine - in no time at all you'll be ho-humming about the power and getting frustrated at slow scoobs and evos in front of you. Smile

Good luck mate. It's easy if you don't let your head get in the way. Just find a way to release some nevrvous energy.

I found it a lot to take in at the time, but that was mainly because I question everything the instructor told me -I wanted to be fully informed and some of the requirements seemed odd.

If you're the sort who just listens and gets on with it, you'll be fine.

I found the test stressful, but passed first time.

Enjoy it...it's about something you consider fun...you will also learn some handy tips from your instructor, if he/she is worth their salt, they might show you some little stunts (like mine did Thumbs Up ).

One thing about lifesavers, do you have to do left and right life savers? Or just on the right, i know its common sense on round abouts, but when making a left turn junction

If you change lanes or turn across a cycle lane you'd need a left lifesaver.

In theory someone shouldn't be undertaking you and you're faster than pushbikes. Doesn't mean there's always going to be nothing there tho.

You'll also need to check both shoulders before you set off.
Don't forget these on your mod1. Treat the fancy carpark like its a road and do the necessary checks
