Boo :(
« on: April 18, 2011, 03:52:30 PM »
Just failed my Module #1.

Put my foot down at the start due to the turning into the parking bay being slightly different to how I'd been trained (so the hard angle i had to do on the steering meant I couldn't get my balance).

Failed before I'd really started :(

Bikes don't leak oil',.... they mark their territory :o)           Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight. Growing old is manditory... but growing up...well that my friends...is OPTIONAL!

Dude, bad luck, just remember you can take as much room as you like just don't hit the cones. Don't make turns tighter than they need to be, you put yourself under pressure. When I did the figure 8 I used just about the whole park.. The instructor must of thought I was taking the pi55 but I passed. Better luck next time.
