Well done, good choice of bike too, it'll give you some motivation to pass your test.

2 hours MOD 1 training.

Test on Thursday yikes
Good luck, I'm sure afterwards you'll think "that was easy, what was all the fuss about?!".
Thanks!

Mod 1 is the one I'm worried about, I'm not that fussed about Mod 2!

Good luck :thumbsup: . Got my first 2 hours training tomorrow, was supposed to be last week but the yard was so icy we couldn't even get the bikes out frown

Then after that we'll line up the test!

Will need to sort out a new battery for my GS125 as well.

Testing the bike modifications that I made. New lip thing for the screen, bar end weights and fixed indicators. Hope the screen mod helps for high speed freeway riding as its not great at the moment. So yeah, bikey.... at last....

Trying to work out ways I can sweet talk MrsB over her birthday weekend to let me buy an incredible classic race bike I've been offered. Starting with poached eggs on toast with fresh juice & cuppa tea, off to pick up huge bouquet soon, taking her to one of her favourite seafood restaurants this evening & smoked salmon breakfast with Buck's Fizz ready for tomorrow's breakfast in bed. Nice prezzy already sorted last weekend. Wish me luck.

The suns out so I will be going out on the VX. A bit short notice but I will pop along to the Sringfields Bike Show in Spalding, I know its not very big but its a chance to have a look at some classics and have a natter with fellow bikers.

After that little lot you won't need any luck, it's a done deal! Just start making some room in the garage cool

The track was very slippy (heavy rain = sand on the track) and one of the Honda race cars dropped oil right round a complete lap! Other than no crashes and 2 3rd place (2nd points places).

I may see if I can find my log in details and password for the Fireblade Forum.

See what Mr OCD is up too.
