    Smile Just had to share...

    Well, I picked the only wet and windy day of the month to sit my full test this morning, but I passed! Yay!

    The roads were really greasy and full of cars at rush hour this morning but I managed to successfully navigate my way around, trying desperately to remember the instructions given to me...first right, second on the left, go to the top of the hill, take the second left etc etc. That was the worst part, trying to remember where I was supposed to go.

    Hazards included a u-turn in a freshly gravelled road, vans reversing straight out of driveways without looking, a bird which I think I ran over, and a dog which raced out of a house and tried to bite me. The instructor behind almost ran it over and said later he thought he might have clipped it.

    Ah well, back to work now for a rest.....

    Up at AA Westgate, you know, they have Uniden radios with earpieces to go under your helmet. This 'remembering instructions' is soooooo last-century, man.

    Wot he said. plus stoppies, doing runners, getting a knee down, AND getting salesmen all excited.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Nice one mate. Best of luck to ya
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Good on you. Bloody awful commuting today. If you can pass your test on a day like today riding should be a breeze.

    You've just got to love Wellington.
