Just passed my Mod 1!

[yaigi]

...First time! With NO minor faults and perfect (as in spot on requirement!) speeds! Woohooo! I'm so happy right now! And SO glad I decided to do it on the big bike!

Thanks so much to everyone who gave me words of encouragement and tips and all that jazz Was well pissed off when I saw the rain this morning but it was alllll gooooood!

Bring on the Mod 2!

I know there were two other people on the forums at least who have their Mod 1 today, can't remember the names, but if you're reading this, how did you do?!

WELL DONE

Got mine 'soon'...starting to get a bit nervous!..hopefully ill be fine as soon as I'm in the compound.

What time was your test? Got mine at 8.15am..I'm assuming the first one of the day, not sure if that's a good or bad thing

Don't worry about the nerves, I think I just learned to accept they would be there and try and live with/ignore them There was just me and the examiner, my instructor stayed inside so I wouldn't feel so 'watched', and my test was at 9am. I think it makes absolutely no difference at all what time your test is, just do everything by the book, even if you feel like a tit. Sit up, make your head movement really obvious, do all your shoulder checks (both ways I was told) and full throttle it when you come out of the bend for your emergency stop and swerve. You'll be fine I'm sure!

I also watched a load of Mod 1 videos on youtube last night, that helped just get it REALLY clear in my head exactly what was required and how they would explain things to you

Good luck!

Well done!!! Nice one

[Flatbadger]

I got mod 1 last week but failed mod 2.. good experience for a pass next time though. Well done yaigi

andy_uk..

I practised U-turns like a bugger the previous 2 nights on a safe bit of road nearby, an industrial park after hours. You have a width of 9 paces to U-turn in during the test so do your U-turns in 7 paces while you practise.

Congrats on passing, just gotta nail that MOD 2 now. Its probably easier than the MOD 1 if you have had training and stick to everything you have been taught.
