Mod 1 completed, can’t quite believe it but there it is. Hopefully get mod 2 booked soon enough!

On the Mod 2, what’s the self ride bit like?

After much debating with myself I have my CBT booked for 2 weeks time.

Plan is to have licence done before winter sets in, then gather up gear and a 600 before spring time.

Many people telling me not to do it, but I've an itch that needs scratched.

It's basically just making your own decisions, straight on at the roundabout and take the first left, the first left could be a oneway /no entry kind of thing or, follow signs for city centre which could mean lane changes (so more lifesavers!) etc

I don't need a boat. You have one!

 

[Lee]

Once you get the test you'll want a bike straight away and that'll be that!
