    Shadow request for riding test this Thu (Bibra Lake - Rockingham)

    UPDATE: Someone cancelled in Rockingham and I have been offered again a last minute riding assessment - thats Thu morning 8.45. So I'm looking for a shadow again on last minute. Please let me know if any of you could help out. Thanks again!
    ----------------------------------------------

    As I gracefully failed my test yesterday morning at Willagee (failing to stop for long enough at a stop sign), I will need to go for a 2nd try.

    Someone cancelled his/her time in Rockingham and I got it for this Thu 2.50 PM.

    Looking for a shadow to help me get from Bibra Lake to Rockingham. Happy to fill your tank and to buy you lunch for your time and help. Thanks!

    Hi Kenk, I also failed yesterday at Willagee for same reason - you didn't have the tall bearded assessor did you (James)?

    Best of luck for your test at Rockingham, hope you passed without a hitch. Would be very grateful if you'd post how you went, I'm also booked there for late June (earliest place I could get a test, and its a long way from Freo..)

    I hear Todds a hard examiner at Willagee, hes been under audit lately for fairness reasons. I failed my first test through him, appealed it to the Transport board and got it overturned and got my RE's

    As discussed in the RE test thread, I did fail my assessment last week in Rockingham. Overall the assessor seemed like a nice guy but as said I did not agree to several points where I got marked.

    Got a new assessment time again thanks to someone cancelling but its already tomorrow (19.05) morning at 8.45. So as unpleasant as it is, I am again looking for a last-minute shadow. Anyone here that could help me out again? Success(Cockburn) to Rockingham. Thanks!

    Passed today Assessed by Gerri. Managed to do something I have never done before - stall my bike on a U turn and make s short skid on E brake. Other than that all was fine. Thanks again to Shortfuse for shadowing and Robocop for offering to shadow.
