    Yet another - I passed my test thread

    As of today I'm now legally allowed to trade in the 250 for something bigger.

    Full licence test is all rather easy and the weather today made for quite a fun ride.

    Now I just have to convince the Mrs that we can afford a new bike.
    Last time the topic came up I believe the reply was "over my dead body".
    So it looks like a double win with the house to myself and a new bike (just kidding folks, I need her income to pay the mortage... unless someone is looking for a room in one tree hill...)

    Hey dude, congratulations. Very encouraging to hear that the full licence test is not that difficult. Hope your Mrs comes around with letting you get something more ginormous.

    What you have in your heart will be revealed through what you have in your life.

    If things are going badly in our circumstances, the answer to what is happening to us outwardly is more often than not found in the mirror.

    Congrats dudes. I passed yesterday too. I thought the test was a bit of a joke really, expecially the spotting hazards thing. Still, I passed, which was the whloe point so I'm happy. Now off to the dealers with my new "test pilot" licence Hello TL1000S/R

    Triple snap!

    I was cruising the streets last Thursday and I don't know why I was worried at all. The test was all but the same as the restricted I did only 3 months before!

    As for the hazard spotting...we stopped 25m before an intersection and he asked me through a headset what my hazards where, so I pointed to him, cars in front going away and coming to me and cars that may come from both sides.

    There was a little 80k riding and two U turns, all in all just take heaps of time and relax.

    NOW I get to use Connie who has been waiting patiently for 2 weeks!

    Congrats to you all and don't stress to anyone about to take theirs
