captf Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 I am now a fully licensed biker. 4 minors [2 of which were for hesitation - stuck behind a bus, and I didn't want to risk nipping out. Yeah, I was too close... 1 for speed [34-35 in a 30] and 1 for rear observations.] Thought I'd failed. Got a grilling from the examiner after regarding the minors, and then he did a "So, do you want me to send off your license, or are you happy getting your own?" Had to resist going "You utter bastard..." Unfortunately, no celebration ride for me just now: killer headache kicked in after getting back to the bike school, which wasn't helped by driving home in rush hour traffic. Instead, it's sleep time. 3

captf Posted October 3, 2014 Author Posted October 3, 2014 Oh, and for more of the examiner's sense of humour: As he handed me the pass certificate, he commented "And hold on to that, as you'll need it for part 3." And walked out the room before my test-frazzled brain had a chance to catch up. 1

captf Posted October 3, 2014 Author Posted October 3, 2014 I'm sticking with the YBR for a bit, while I investigate my options and save up some money. While I have my license, I don't feel I've "earned my wings" yet, and I'm mostly commuting anyway. I am tempted by a VSX650 though...
