Another R-E Pass!
Hey all, just letting you know I passed my R-E in Morley just then. I'm absoutely stoked, now I gotta finish saving for a bike  My first half of the test was perfect, flawless o-turns and good e-stop. The nerves started getting to me after that and I forgot to indicate a couple of times and was a bit 'wobbly' on the bike, but apart from that it went well.
Thanks to Evan, I'd reccommend him to anyone who's thinking of learning, good bloke and a good teacher.

ive got my eyes on the ninja, it depends how many hours i can work over the uni hols. i know most people keep their bike for a year but due to being financially tight i will have no choice but to keep it till the end of uni(3 more years). this means i might as well get something ill enjoy.
and yes it feels awesome!
anyone want a kidney?

i dont think its because of that. i think it because morley is simply a deathtrap to ride through(in my opinion). very easy to forget headchecks etc caus theres so many side streets. and road positioning is a pita on those wide streets. thanks for the comments guys!

great stuff man...  stay rubber down (when you get your bike) enjoy the freedom. Just make sure on the road, think that everyone is out to get you.
