Busbyian Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Hi everyone, I am getting my biking career going a little later in life (44),but am really looking forward to it.I am sitting my CBT on Saturday,and when complete I have a Yamaha YZR R125 on order.Went to my mate earlier and he has one.Well impressed with it.Looks so much more than a 125.I rode a few scooters(twist and go) when I was younger,but am going to enjoy proper biking.Goes without saying that safety is paramount,and I will be making sure that I take in everything the instructors tell me on Sat. Anyway nice to be part of the forum Ian

Busbyian Posted January 29, 2011 Author Posted January 29, 2011 Sat My CBT today and Passed.Really enjoyed the day.A lot harder than I thought,but I suppose there is no substitute for saftey.1 Girl left at lunchtime as the instructor didnt think she was safe and competent enough to go on the road in the afternoon.We were on 125cc Honda's which were fine. Great Day Thanks for your support Ian
