Hello Guys and Girls!
How are you all?? - great to see a site, dedicated to connecting local bikers!!
Well, I'm Andy (aka GingerWizard / CR )
I started my journey into biking by being asked if I would like to pillion to the Ace Cafe, by my good mates (Mark and Oli - cheers guys), one early spring night. It slapped me in the face and I finally understood the appeal to riding a motorcycle. Oh my days, the grin I had on my face could probably have been seen from space :D
So here we are, 12 months later and I have got my feet wet.
I have my mod 1 tomorrow afternoon, though feeling a little apprehensive about it (as I do with any sort of test), totally prepared thanks to Mark Able (hope I do him proud)
If When I pass, I will be riding the lovely, 2001, blue, CB600F Hornet that as I type this, is winking at me from the conservatory (I am single so I can get away with having a motorbike and the excellent smell of petrol and rubber in the house hahaha)
Looking forward to giving you all a nod in passing!!
GW / CR / Andy
good luck for tomorrow and welcome to wb

Sorry to say I didn't pass mod 2...
had a horrendous start to the day that I really didn't need, which did not help :-[
Oh well, dust myself off and try again in 2 weeks, better riders pass second time round don't they?
Apologies Mark....

Sorry to hear that buddy! Do you know wher you went wrong for next time? Hat off to you taking it on a bloody cold day when youv got the added complication of keeping concentration while your hands are about ready to drop off.
If you can pass in bloody cold conditions youll be a fine rider for sure im sure! (that was almost Irish ;))

To be honest Rabb, I walked in feeling I hadn't done enough and it would be a 3rd time lucky!
