December is just getting better and better:)
 
Just passed my bike test:D:D

I can't rate C-View on Canvey highly enough, Del is a top instructor and if anyone wants to take the test, he's the man!! very patient and a funny guy, he'll put you at your ease!!

When I last done my test, the weather was perfect for riding, nice and cool, sun was shining and bone dry, but today, it was very windy and pouring down with rain and it was a far better ride, only 5 minors compared to 11 last time!

With this weather, the bike is going the way of KevD, it's staying in the garage, got to pull my finger out now and respray it then a trip to RB5 Mark for the graphics!!

Congratulations mate, how much did the entire test cost you all in all :)

Cornelius 06 December 2007 02:53 PM

done a CBT, 4 day course and test with Probike and was £595 for everything, but they wanted £275 for a day and retest, so got in touch with C-View and was charged £160 for 3 hours training and test

Thanks, it's a real buzz riding a bike, especially being able to zip through the traffic and I can't wait for the weather to improve so I can get out on the bike!! (It's staying in the garage until it warms up again)

The best advice I've been given is to treat all other road users as though they're out to get you

Well done mate..... take it easy!!!

EmEm 06 December 2007 06:33 PM

Congratulations Paul!!
I think I took my test in the rain! Third time and I passed! Think it makes you more warey and think more when the weather isn't great!

Now, watch out for those numpties who don't look out for bikes!!! They hurt!!

Supercue 06 December 2007 06:39 PM

Well done Paul told ya that £50 note would work;)

Thats ok then, not just me who has the license but not the bike! Would love to get another bike, but love my car too much, and it would have to be either sensible car and awesome bike, or no bike and awesome car!! Type R wins hands down!!!

Funny you should mention that mate, just got to change the rear brake pads on the Golf, then spending the rest of the weekend on the bike, you're more than welcome to come round for a coffee;)
