Hi there,
I sat my restricted 2 weeks ago in Thames,
it took an hour from start to finish...
The guy looked my bike over and discovered my Rego had expired the day before (duh!) so he made me go and get more rego before we could carry on...
Rode around for best part of an hour, luckily I had read up on the Give Way rules before I went so there was no hesitating at the many intersections he took me thru..
He made me do Two U-turns in an INCREDIBLY narrow side street which had gravel on either side - I would never have done a u turn in such a place normally, luckily i had practised...
He gave me plenty of warning that he was going to ask me what hazards I had seen, and he wanted me to list such things as - oncoming cars, pedestrians, cars parked in driveways, side streets, schools,
I actually got two chances at this as I missed it the first time..
then we went out to an 80 k area and he wanted me to note the 'permanent hazards' by turning my helmet - i interpreted this as side streets..
and I passed so it cant have been that hard.
Just practice riding at 50k, and brush up on give way rules if youre not completely happy,
and ride like you own it
