Hi all
Just in the middle of doing my DAS with a friend. Got my test in a few weeks, dreading the U Turn!!
Anyways I've gone for a green ER6n as my first bike, can't wait to get it altho nervous about dropping the damn thing! Does anyone else have a green ER6n?
Cheers
Pete.

Good luck with the test.
Remember Lifesavers, U-turns: the secret is to look where you want to go.

Cheers for the welcome fellas
tnt: I work in Helsby with a few lads from Winsford its not far at all! ZX6R... what a bike, would have loved to have bought one but not got the balls for it just yet!
Some good advice about looking where you want to go! I find that I tend to stare at the tarmac a bit too much, I'll try and sort that out this saturday... maybe a neck brace would stop me looking down?!
Will keep a lookout for you local lads... anyone ever come near Runcorn/Chester at all?
Cheers
Pete.

A few of us will be passing through Runcorn this Sunday Pete, over the bridge and on up to F.Ferry for the PowerBike 2008 Show. Just hope the weather improves by then. You should get yourself along there, be lots going on and lots of bikes etc.

A meetup sounds great, i'll be wanting to get some miles under my belt once I've passed!
Wish I could make the show this Sunday Merc, but I'm up in Bolton... maybe next time. Have a good day!
Had lesson 3 & 4 today... thought it went ok apart from a few dodgy U-turns earlier in the day.
Pete.
