Am I too old at 51 to take my full bike test?
I did take my CBT in my late 20's with a plan to take my full bike test but never continued for one reason and another.
Then 2 years ago my girlfriends Mum asked me to sell her Vespa ET2, following a stoke which meant she couldn't get it off the stand. I'd done a few jobs (i.e.changed the battery) on the bike over the years for her. She bought it off a family friend in 2004 when it was 3 month old and kept it all that time. She had every MOT certificate, service receipt, etc. and it was in very good condition with only 4k miles. So I bought it and use it to pop around town time all the time, rarely using my car in the summer.
Then after visiting Annecy and Chamonix in the summer and seeing all the touring bikes, it sort of piqued my interest in perhaps taking my full test and getting a bigger bike.
Anyone else taken their full test in their 50's? No..... it's not a mid-life crisis!
