Posted October 2, 201410 yr 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.
October 3, 201410 yr Author 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.
October 3, 201410 yr Author 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...
