:evil: AAARRRGGGHHH!!!! Failed my test with 2 minors but 1 major. A bloody cager stalled as the lights went green, I slammed both brakes on, front went down and the bike went sideways. Managed to catch it apparently 2 inches from the ground but as I was moving its an instant fail. Will have to rebook tomorrow. Means my baby has to stay in the garage for now. :cry:

HI, Right i'm calm again now. Vented my anger on my sons Wii. They things are cool for de stressing. :twisted: As fester says the next test is booked for March 5th. At least I'll remember to keep my sodding head up ALL the time so I might react properly.Its just hurts to have my new ( well new to me) bike in the garage under a blanket all taxed and ready to go, but as you say I'll nail it next time. :D As for calling me a different name, Blue is the only name apart from my real name that I have ever been called that won't get cencered on this site :lol:

Welcome to SWB!

Good luck on your test again. I know everybody says to go in relaxed but it is more difficult to do in reality!

Hope to see you on a meet/rideout.
