          It’s a beautiful day here in Louisville so I did my first proper bit of riding as a brand new motorcyclist.

          3 short trips throughout the day with each one branching out a little bit further. Just building some confidence here. All in all about 50 miles total.

              After failing my mod1 test last month I just got a retest date! I have a 125 right now so can practice ready for next Thursday! Any bikers who wanna give advice feel free I really wanna pass this time! Pics of my little beast ( soon to be a triumph if I pass) for attention!
              Cheers all!

                @BenBWH I have no business giving out advice but do you know where you lost points on your first go round?

                  @WithBongInHand I passed the whole thing until I got to the emergency stop. I treated it like a car estop and dropped the anchors at 55mph. Got a little skid on the back wheel which is an automatic fail here. Our Mod 1 is all manoeuvres at slow speed, figures 8’s, u turn, stuff like that. I’ve been practicing in car parks near me

                    Don’t put your foot down. 😁 Watch the front brake, don’t use it while turning, use your rear brake. The clutch is your friend. Be confident, your practice will get you through it. You got this 🙌🤟

                      @Denimhead-0 thanks man!! I’ve been begetting the ride time in atleast a couple hours each day since the last test so hopefully that be enough to get me thru! We’ve got mad storms here at the moment but soon as it’s dry I’ll be back in that car park hitting the manoeuvres again! Much appreciated Jay
