well got training with one2one on wed for about 5 hours and then the tests on friday

anyone done it there?


I did. My examiner was on a Pan European and was ok, scary as hell though.

Anything you need to know in particular? Make sure you're good with your roundabouts! Most of the smaller roundabouts are ok, on my test I ended up near Keele uni where its a large road and quite easy.

Good luck!

Well I didn't really wanna say it but he was quite strict.
Here's a prime example: on the pillion questions he reminded me on the point 'ensure pillion is facing towards the front of the bike'. It's bloody common sense!

One of the Instructors I done my DAS course with asked about taking pillion riders during the show me tell me questions they teach you.

When he asked as a pillion what he should do one of the guys on the course said to get on the bike..... He did just that, got on the bike facing backwards. When he was told to turn around he reminded us that some people are THAT stupid.
