    Just breathe, you'll be fine.

    Also take something with your address on it (like a bill or something), so you can get your new (temporary) license issued.

    Bike all warranted and rego'd ??

    Just relax, pay attention to what the tester says and try to do things to the letter. Like any other time you ride, one of the worst things you can do is be really nervous when you get on the bike cos nervous = mistakes. So chill. You'll be fine.

    Good Luck :-)

    Don't worry too much if it rains, they may just pass you because they feel sorry for you. I think the only reason I passed my full test was because it was snowing!

    Keep eye on mirrors always. Just know that after the test youll be wondering what you were worried about. Its a laugh.

    Technically, getting you off the road would mean getting you on a racetrack. You know there's the Clubman class, Street Stock class 150's etc?? I've seen you on a track and I know you'd love racing. Maybe take the beasty KR racing when you upgrade (due soon no doubt)??

    Blah

    Make sure to go to the loo just before rocking up for the test .... have heard that some gals seem to find anxiety brings on a need to pee part way thru.

    ------- oh - and SMILE dunno why but it seems to help!

    good luck gal!!!

    Hey Hels, you'll be fine. I actually ended up having a smoke with the instructor dude before all of my tests, he was a crack up. He did comment on one thing to me about my position on the road and at intersections, ie not being in car blind spots and at intersections not to be too far left or right in my lane, due to cars that cut in on you (being a keen biker himself, he was very wise and kewl!). So maybe take note of things like that too. Oh and also be aware of potential hazards, like crest of hills, parked cars, kids etc incase they ask you to describe some. You'll be fine babe, just tell him you're nervous and they may allow a little for being tense. Good luck, let us know how you do!!

    that is actually a really good idea...gets you into the mood of riding before you have to sit the test.

    Good luck!
