Good luck Andrea! Be interested to hear how you go and what the test is like. I hope to be booking in for mine in October, which isn't really that far away...is it? Also, let me know if you can still shorten the waiting period. I think you can if you're (ahem) over 25....I hope that's not MENTAL age...

Breathe.....just breathe, it aint that bad, unless you cause and accident, you will pass. I did something that the instructor pointed out to me, it was her opinion i thought, not a matter of being illegal, all it was, i came to a set of lights and was to turn left, two lanes, cars in both, so i went up the left of the inside car in preperation to turn, who wouldn't do that on a bike?...
Good luck andrea, you will do it........

Good luck for that.. Mine's late August (after 23rd).. I wish it just went from Learner's to Full..

My testing officer told me I was going too slow. I was on a borrowed 250 and wasn't at all used to it. Since then I have made up for my indescretion whenever possible.

Just relax and think. You'll be surprised how insignificant it all is, kind of a dissapointment almost.

You will fly through, was absolutely simple. Strange though, I found it harder than the full.... but hard is relative...
