Dave has had three bikes since 2002, but didn't get around to taking his test until 2009 and has no regrets other than taking so long! First boys trip under the wheels and looking forward to doing many many more!!

Progress

It has been a little while since I updated you all on my progress. So, with that in mind, I guessed I best get myself sorted and change that. 

Where to start?

Well, I have now picked up a bike, in truth this was sorted a little while ago with a large deal of thanks to both Shane and Leigh. Without them who knows if things would have progressed! With a bike sorted of the Bandit variety, the next task on the list was to undertake the CBT or DA, which ever I would require. This conundrum was solved by making a phone call to one the instructors, we ascertained from a chat that I would only require the DA part which greatly reduced the time scale to getting out on the bike. To be truthful, it reduced it from about 9 weeks to 1 week. With that done and out of the way the next stage was required. And that,  was to book and take the theory test which I passed Friday just gone (21st November). This was approximately 2 to 3 weeks after my DA, not bad going so far. Now I just have the third and final stage of it to do. You can guess what that is; book the practical test and remember mirrors and shoulder checks (the boys keep telling me off all the time). So to summarise, all in all, progress has been quick! I am glad I am finally getting my license, rather then being a fool and just riding on a provisinal license. The next update on my progress, I hope, will be passing my test. Wish me luck with that!!
