Of course! :niceone:

I hear they're actually planning on making it tough(er) from end of Feb this year.

I hate to imagine what it's like getting a license somewhere such as Germany, hours and hours required with an instructor before allowed to have a license! :laugh:

Nicely done! I've got mine tomorrow morning...hopefully the weather plays nice.

Did you have to identify hazards over the radio thingy while riding?

Not for your full at the moment.... it is a repeat of the restricted that i took in january

Should be fairly straightforward then. Off to look at new bikes tomorrow afternoon...if only I had the money to actually buy one :brick:

Thanks all!

No, I'd expected it the hazard ID part but it was just ride around, one U-turn, ride around some more and that was it! I was really surprised!

Good luck for yours!

Thanks. The test centre is in Penrose which is local to where I am so there's really no excuse for failing:rockon:

Thanks, and thanks for all your mentoring right from my newbie days... Ah that first motorway ride on the teeny Scorpio when 80kph seemed scary!

Errrrrmmmmm, ten gear Shimano, I think? :scratch:

Passed the full test!

Talk about a piece of piss.

Got on the bike at 931am, off the bike by 940am. Went down a few streets, onto a busy road, on the motorway at Ellerslie, off the motorway 1 offramp later at the big roundabout thing and then back to the AA. No hazard tests, no u-turn. When he told me to pull over and wait I thought "that can't be it...surely?"

"Great riding, here is your full license"

:woohoo:
