    Talking Passed my full with flying colours

    Yay! Passed my full this morning at Westgate. Actually it was a fun little ride on a fine morning and I had a ball!

    The nice tester man said he couldn't fault me on anything (he's my new best friend).

    When I did my 6R at Westgate the woman followed me in a car and I had to turn when she indicated, but this guy used the head-set so he could tell me where to go. IMO the headset option was far, far easier (especially on unfamiliar streets).

    I did the following:

    U-turn in a street
    U-turn in a car park with some loose gravel on the surface
    hill start
    Rode in 50k & 80k speed zones
    left, right and straight through at roundabouts, give way signs, stop signs and uncontrolled intersections
    stopping in the 80k zone, then merging back into the traffic and getting up to speed
    hazard identification (just moving hazards - specifically other vehicles, pedestrians and animals)
    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

    Yeah I thought they might take me into a 100k zone, but when I was riding home from the test the Northwestern was so clogged I hardly got up to 100kph at all. I probably rode much faster in the 80k zone than I would have on the motorway.

    Oh celebration, happy salutation! Well done that biker - hope you don't just ditch the trusty chew fiddy yet and ride it for a little longer before upgrading!
