              @BenBWH what did they get you on?

              when I did my tests for motorcycle license after many years of driving. a lot of "bad habits" stuck with and I think I failed twice. compared to passing in 1 go for my car test

                  Club night. Time to check tire pressure and fluid levels. I rode the Bonne last time. I’m thinking Duc tonight.

                    I live about 50 miles North of the Clubhouse. The Duc is lovely on the country roads & freeway. But it sucks in the City. Especially on the way down. Too much stop and go. That dry clutch gets grabby when it’s hot. It wasn’t bad on the way home. Much less traffic and cooler temps @ midnight and once I hit the Golden Gate Bridge it was all smooth sailing.
                    Keep the rubber side down, brothers.

                              I failed my first attempt at a motorcycle driving test because I braked a bit hard during the emergency stop, and the rear wheel lifted.

                              I got my licence, eventually.

                                @Graeme I’ll get there too mate! I’m waiting on the retest now so hopefully it’ll be soon! In a way I’m glad the mishap happened under test conditions and not for real out on the roads. Thank you mate
