cackin my kecks

Post by BIGSTEVE »

I've been lurkin in the shadows but it's time i came out (not in that kind of way). I have finally convinced her in doors to let me get my bike license.

I have my theory on th 11th and cbt on 12th July. I'm absolutley cackin myself. I've wanted to ride for so long that now it is actualy here i'm a bit reluctant.

I will be sitting my cbt with Biketec and DAS with Right Start Motoring ( the later as i want to take my test in Peterhead). Have any of you heard or used right start before?

Any advice or worldly wisdom would be greatly appreciated. :worthy

best of luck with the test .
It's easy.
Don't go any faster than you are happy with and remember that everyone on the road is out to kill you.
Try and anticipate how they are going to try next !

It's good fun with some cracking people for company once you are through the tests.

Enjoy and don't push too hard.

Cheers Angel,

I was a little uncertain about using right start as I had never heard of them before but glad to hear that Rainbow was happy with them.

Can't wait now :biggrin2
