So do you drink enough for the pair of you..... or are you just waiting to be kicked out of the city as you're clearly not being Glaswegian enough... [/quote]
I don't drink either but in true Glaswegian fashion gave up the drink when I could legally start! |

Don't use 1-2 fingers on the brake lever.
I did on my CBT out of habit and was told CBT isn't a fucking MX track, shame! |

It might be harder than you think it's going to be but that's okay.
If there are young blokes there who jump on and seem to be able to do it all immediately and you wonder why you're still shit scared of turning a corner, that's okay (they've probably been riding pit bikes since they were 6).
If you feel like you're getting nowhere and it's harder than you thought, that's okay.
Basically try to have fun. And relax. And at some point three months after your CBT when you're riding down the road and you're smelling the amazing summer air, and you have an awesome ridiculous grin on your face you'll realise it's all been worth it |

Mrs grr has a repeat CBT booked for the 20th August. This time she's doing it with her Dad who has been occasionally
pottering about on her little brothers 125 without the correct pieces of paper. After nagging him half to death about it he's agreed
to do CBT as his luck can't last forever and he will be stopped and busted for no CBT and no insurance. I'd love to be a fly
on the wall for that session. Mrs grr will be using her own scootay this time round. Besides it will be a nice father/daughter
experience for them both. I'll have to ride the scoot down there while Mrs grr drives the car as her current CBT expires on
the 3rd then I'll bring the car back home. Her Dad will be using a manual school bike. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Oh, one (actual) suggestion: get out on a pushbike. Apart from the balance benefits, it'll get you used to the idea of being invisible and vulnerable, and having to negotiate junctions with some care. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
