I recenly passed mine (first time ) and I would say your thoughts all the time from now until your test should be focused on how to do all the correct things.
Like,
Observations, correct lanes, singals, roundabouts, speed limits, etc.
If you can ride, then you need to be prepard mentally so you don't panic and screw it up.
You will do a hill start, a tight pull out from behind a car, be asked to pull in a safe place, etc. Make sure you are aware of all the things your going to do, that way you know they'll be comming and you are prepared.
Don't rush anything, think about it.
Good luck. |

You will also be asked a few questions before the test, make sure you have revised.
I did find a really good site, but would need to Google for a while to find it again, but here is one.

| Cheers mate... its been a nearly two weeks since I was on the bike (for the mod1) and I'm loving it out on the road... temptation to jump on mine has been like a fever but I've resisted & I nipped to the riding school last night just to go over some visual examples of correct positioning & observation points.... It's just the day isnt it? You worry you pull something moronic out the hat and screw it up lol |

Cant get away from work this week as I'm covering for my gaffer as well as doing my own job  Plus even if I could there's a complete lack of mod 2 slots so it would be cancellations only... My only hope is something crops up Saturday... If not then its 3 weeks till I get a go!! Not impressed at all.... Wouldnt be so bad but my instructer said I had a fantastic ride up to the test center & as long as I went a little faster I'd pee it.... Really REALLY wanted it sorted before I went away but not looking likely |
