I had experience riding bikes in India for almost 8 years, not ridden any above 125cc though but always wanted to. I had been planning almost 10 years to get the licence here and finally decided to go for it this year after we had our second child in May, Dg riders were based near to my place and after speaking to Dave I joined the course.
Wasn't sure what to expect when I turned up on CBT day, did the CBT on Sunday, and for the next 2 days training I got the big one, a Suzuki Bandit 650, the day I waited had arrived. Although I had been riding for years, Dave gave me amazing tips for safety, refining my riding technique and too many bad habits that I had accumulated had to be worked on. Dave was extremely patient and spoke to me explaining in detail the reason behind every action.
I did my Mod1 on Wednesday and passed 1st time, Mod 2 was the following Thursday and had practiced in Erith area, the test centre was changed to Gillingham, unfamiliar terrain and stupid obvious error from me, dint pass. My second go was at Erith after 2 weeks but was unlucky. I had a half day holiday remaining for the year and had a 3rd go yesterday. I passed... Very pleased with myself. Dave was very encouraging through out and gave me the inspiration to keep going.
Never give up..
I plan to rent bikes and try diff ones before I find my
love.. Big thank u Dave.... Regards, Paul
