Mrs Kwacky is due to do her CBT this Sunday. She has mentioned putting it off what with losing her dad but I've told her it'll be a welcome distraction.

Pass on my condolences and wish her luck from me for Sunday. There isn't to much to be nervous about with it. On my CBT I stalled the bike and then failed to roll off 3 times in a row oblivious to a police car with the blues going directly behind me till the instructor pointed it out over the radio and had me waddle to the side of the road. Still passed.

If she wants a project bike to work on too...

Do you get to sit at home with the kids while the missus goes out riding? Something is not right there!! (lol)

All the best to the Mrs, I'm sure she will ace it

Sure she will do excellently Kwacky and tell her to enjoy it, it's not a test, sure she's listened to you for all those years she will know better than the instructor!!

My boyfriend refuses to get on a bike... not interested. But he's happy for me to buzz around for hours and hours and spend lots of my hard earned cash on it :D Wooo!!!

She passed her CBT but I don't think she's smitten with two wheels.

One of her mates has got an old 125 kicking around. I suggested she has a go on that as she might feel more relaxed on the road if she's riding without an instructor following her.

She needs to pass her full test before she can even think about touching the ninja.
