Hey Groucho Firstly I admire your resilience, if it was me starting out (relatively speaking) and all that shit had hit me, I would have chucked bikes, so well done for sticking it out. Now is the time to start learning about bikes mate. Enough folk on here have offered to help on numerous occasions and advice was given to enlist on a bike mechanics course at college. It probably hurts to add up the cost over the last 18 months, but weigh that against the cost of a night school course and I bet you would have been quids in both monetarily and self satisfaction wise, so come on mate take the plunge now

The same thing happened to my boy last week. A car coming towards him with no lights on, my son flashed him to let him know. The auld cnut driving slowed right down and gave him the finger. This auld generation have no manners

Mike It started in among Ozzie Rugby players a number of years ago. They grew moustaches in the month of November (MOvember) to raise cash and awareness of Mens' Health issues, mainly Testicular and Prostate cancer. It has since spread, firstly through Rugby clubs but now pretty much most walks of life. I usually grow mine as a bit of fun, but this is the first years I've signed up for sponsorship

and me mate I remember my first time seeing a doner kebab....London 1980 and I thought it looked disgusting (I was young and innocent then), anyway slide forwards about 6 years and the 1st kebab shop opened in Gourock, and I still thought they were disgusting until one night about 3 yrs after it opened. I had rolled out the pub at late oclock and missed the chinese. The only shop open was this kebab shop. In I stagger asking if they did any 'real' food. The guy offered me a piece of doner meat to try...Well beat me with a big stick, it was the best friggin thing I had tasted in my drunk life. I'm still miffed that I had denied myself this treat for 9 years

No harm done mate. We've all made mistakes in the past, some we got away with, some not so lucky

Doesn't it reflect off the inside of the visor when you have it down?

Saffer I would say you contact the original garage. Plan what you want to say (even to the point of writing it all down), do not lose your rag no matter how annoyed you get. Give them a chance to diagnose the fault and see what they're going to do about it. Then take it from there. If no joy contact either citizens advice centre, or even trading standards and go from there. But first contact the original garage

If you mean other than a car theory test the answer is Yes. My boy went through his last year and his cbt was c£120 including bike hire, cant remember the cost of part 1 and 11 but it was £60 for a two hour bike lesson, once again including bike
