hey all just to tell u all that i passed my driving test today. Sadly only for my car tho. I got my bike theory next week so i will probably just add onto this post if i pass that or not. Then onto my 33 brake test. WOHOO!!
The test guy asked me wot car I was getting now I had my license. He was a bit confused wen I turned round n said "who wants a car. I'm getting a bike" he was just sat there going "but u just passed ur car license dont u wanna get a car instead" and the answer is eh....no not really. cars dont really interest me i would probably only use it wen its raining or i need to go shopping. anyway my driving tutor now owes me a bottle of southern comfort so im happy.
but YAY!

might have found a car now but the insurance is silly. the cheapest quote i found online was 1300quid. Robbin so n so's. Nevermind. Least i will come down next year. One company said they would try n take in consideration that ive been riding my bike for over two years.
I also got a question.
I sent my license n counterpart to the DVLA on Thursday but I got my bike theory on 16th August. Do I need my license for it or can I just take my passport or summit like that?
Anyone who knows please help. Need to know whether or not to change the date of my theory test.

You need to take your driving licence with you to be able to take your theory test

Still not found a car yet but I did do my pass plus today. My back is so damn sore tho. Went from Blackpool to the Lake District and clocked up about 200miles. Was crazy. Had to have lots of fag breaks too. Saw loads of bikers. My drivin instructor found it funny and we started playin "spot the bike" we tried to name all the bikes we went past. Saw loads pulled up in a pub car park. Spotted a ducati monster, ducati 996, fireblade and a few others. Felt sorry for the mad idiot on the GSXR tho on the way back. It was pi$$in it down wiv rain and he looked rather wet. See I knew there was a reason I was getting a car.
