    Got my handling certificate yesterday.

    Thanks RoadSafe. I borrowed my mates zzr 250 and didnīt have any problems except for going round the cones... at low speed... I just couldnīt get it

    At the end I had to do it on one of their little bikes (GN125 or somthing) and it was MUCH easier... I guess its either harder on the zzr or you need to ride it differently.

    Anyway I am happy and will be doing my theory this week

    Ever notice that anyone slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster is a maniac?

    I would say its more to do with the seating position. A lot easier to do that low speed stuff when you are upright. Also helps you to pick an object in the distance, not right in front of you.
    Has anyone seen my baffles?

    Hey Jim, I was there with ya on the Roadsafe course!! And I got given the 100cc bike for heaven's sake! I reckon Andrew figured that I was gonna be trouble, so gave me the most problematic bike! Gotta love them 2-strokes.

    Can't wait till Thursday when bike's delivered! YAY!

    Hey your the person who kept on smoking me out and then breaking down in front of me I did my theory today and passed I have just been all round town and up all the hills I could find0


    Hey Aitch you have to do a handeling certificate before the theory to be able to get your learners. You have to prove you can stop and go round cones and pretty much basically ride a bike.
