Hiya, managed to get a slot pretty quickly for my cbt test, theres usually a 3 week wait.

Just wondering if anyone had any tips for me please!

First time on the road so i'm a little nervous!

Thanks,
Mark

If anyone from the South West watches the local news, the place is called 'Wheels to Work' based in Holsworthy. It won the best charitable fund or something, the local news had a competition running.

He has said that most places take you out for the minimum time needed, but he said to me thats its his name on the certificate so he said he carrys on until hes confident that your safe. 10am till atleast 4pm he said

If you somehow manage to fail one of these "tests" can I personally laugh in your face?

sure if your willing to face the consequences

j/k

apparently you dont get to go on the bike before you have done 3 hours of theory type work? hopefully that will build my confidence up

well... it was easy!

Only thing he said that he could fault me on was getting to close to parked cars, but apart from that he said it was 100%! woohoo

now i just need to buy a helmet, jacket and gloves!

i have a Sym City Hopper, derestricted, only cost £350 so im not complaining!

Was going to get a RS50 but the costs would have been way to high.

Just need to get it serviced and get insurance!

I am sure you could have picked up an old CG125 for that sort of money, would have been faster than what you have and very reliable.

Are you planning on going further on 2 wheels or happy to stick with a 50cc bike and a CBT?

I prefer something abit more stylish and newer. I only intend to have the scooter for a 10 months as I want a car. This is only to get me from A to B
