mailee Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Well after passing my test on Monday I actually got out on the bike this evening. The intention was to go to Willingham Woods and I set off to my mates home where we would set off from. Half way to his home the heavens opened up! Bummer. :roll: Got to his home and had a cuppa while we waited to see if it would stop. it didn't and I ended up riding back home again in the rain. All in all it was about a twenty minute ride and I was soaked at the end of it but it was worth every minute to be out on the road on my own bike. and I have stopped shaking now.

Ttaskmaster Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Take it easy and learn as much as you can. I did my test in hammering Basingstoke rain. Almost got hit myself, but the same car then almost hit the examiner!! Conga-rats on passing the test!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
