Nice one

Remember everyone has to start somewhere

The day will be filled with lots of information, was knackered by the end of mine just through the concentration.

U turns are easy once you get the hang of them, they aint that bad

Good luck What are you hoping to get a 125? How old are you? Don't worry it's a fun day so enjoy, whats the weather like there as is miserable here now.

[Adam.I]

Thanks guys. I'm going to get a good nights sleep and be all ready for it tomorrow. Thought I would have to wait a while for them to fit me in but no, anytime I wanted. Dreading the U-Turns, but I'll get the hang of them. Was thinking more of a 600, but I'll make my mind up tomorrow when I can see how I am on the 125. I'm 19 by the way. Dreading 20 in less than three weeks! The weather was brilliant yesterday, not too bad today, sunny so that's alright. Going to check the forecast.

Its not a test mate so don't worry, the instructor is there to help you. Theres no pass/fail situation (as long as you are with a good company) and you are there to learn and meet a required standard.

My CBT was my first time on a bike and I did it at almost the same age as you, it was a good laugh because I did it with a mate and its bizzare to be out on the road after a few hours of training - good value for circa 100 notes anyway. If I could go do my again (because my GF wants to do it) I probably would.

Enjoy it and get back on here tomorrow and let us all know how it went!

Good luck!

79 quid is good. Its a relaxed atmosphere. You'll be fine

[Adam.I]

Just got back from the test. I didn't pass. Have to do it again because at the beginning I kept on fucking up. After dinner, I was fine with the clutch-control. The morning was harder though, new to it, different style to cars and freezing! Also, the guy was getting a little bit pissed of which put's pressure on you to do it right, but once I got it right, he was sorted. But by the time I had got my head around it, I had just finished the off-road training and so it was too late to do the final part to pass, the two hour road test to show you have control in proper situations so I'll have to book again, and hopefully do it all in one day.

Good Luck and I hope its a bit warmer for you, than it has been today.

[Rookie]

You should do it on a twist 'n go! You've got enough to learn without learning clutch control, I'm still getting to grips with the finer points of it after 8 hours of training on my intensive. Oh well, at least you've got it out of the way. Good luck for next time.

I had to leave my CBT early and took the road part of the test the next week.

Didn't cost me anything extra though, just the £60 originally agreed. Got a lift home on the back of his blade too.

Yeah you shouldn't have to pay any more. Going out on the road is the best bit, you'll enjoy that more than messing around in the carpark.

Me and my examiner heard the sound of a baby crying half way through for about 10 minutes, was very disconcerting.

Must have been receiving a baby monitor from somewhere.

I just hope I pass next time, if not, I'll be really depressed, as for doing to road test the next day, I don't know. Maybe he felt I wasn't up tp scratch and that another CBT was needed?
