P.S. I won't be along next week as I will be away from Auckland.

I went for a lovely ride along the NASS route at around 7 last night - I had fun and weather was fine....

Pansies....

Looks like I'll be in the big city again, and on the trusty Honda whale as well. If some one brings some tennis balls and the weather is fine any one want to have a go at some counter steering exercises?

Sounds like a racquet to me..

Good luck! Excited?

Don't stress too much, you have enough skill and experience to pass with ease. Relax and be smooth.

If I remember rightly, you will need to practice u turns, make sure you exaggerate head checks and get the give way rules right. It's just an ordinary ride, with some guy stalking you.

Best of luck, only a year (CBTA?) til you get your full then!

Quick tip from an examiner I got was put a contrasting sticker near but not on the middle of the back of your helmet. He used to issue coloured or white avery folder labels to those who did not have already.
Washes off easily but it makes head movements really visible from much further back.
