    I've gone and done it. Finally.

    Well...At last,i can say have my full license.Something i should have done 25 years ago.

    Was a piece of piss.In fact,i would have thought that it would have been a bit more involved.

    At least now i can ride my blade where and when i want,without having to tiptoe around,hoping the cops ignore me.

    Shit that reminds me.

    Must put that on the to do list.
    Arguing with an Engineer is like wrestling a pig in mud.

    After a while you realise the pig is enjoying it.

    Congratulations.

    I'm going to sit my full in late April... after being on a learners (then recently restricted) since '91.

    Heard they quiz you on the road code and depending on the tester, failing a question can fail your whole test... So I better brush up.

    Nah....I didn't get any questions asked at all.

    I just made sure i lifted my feet on take offs,planted both feet on stops,checked my blind spots when lane changing,checked my mirrors regularly,indicated going on and off passing lanes,and indicate left when going straight through a round-a-bout,(this is an important one,as many people still get this mixed up.),and of course,watch your speed.
    End of license.

    It's all up to the tester and how they grade....when I went to take my restricted I counted up 9 'bike' mistakes I made (including killing it twice from taking off in first....first time shifting without gloves)....the tester gave me 100%. Turns out he's not a bike rider and only looking for road code violations. I'm going back to the same testing station next time on May 1 for full licence!
