Some freaky things have started to happen since i have decided to sit my bike test,the morning i was going to pay for my test i got an e-mail through friends reunited from a guy i knew at the school wanting to get back in touch,point being this was the guy that got me into bikes in the first place?,i then left the house to go and pay for my CBT,DAS etc and i saw someone driving the very first bike i ever had(about ten years ago,rare bike now),then going along the road to the test centre i was followed for about 11 miles of the 12 mile trip by a hearse?Then this was the killer(no pun intended)i was followed all the way home to within about 200 yards of my house by a hearse!,as much as i tried to ignore my rear view mirror both times it made me feel ill :-),my girlfriend was in the passenger seat and commented about how quiet i was,i just gave a little laugh and said oh nothing,just nervous about this test coming up,this has really shook me up haha!oops,nervous laughter,im cracking up here!Should i be unduly worried?:-)

Jeez, dont worry its the fear of death that makes it exciting. Alternativly wrap yourself in cotton wool and drive a tank if you dare go out at all!

Seriously though, being aware that your not imortal is the bigest safty mechanism you can have. Things are more likly to happen if you think you're Captin Scarlet! (Indestructable) Sadly though the odds of riding two wheels over four are obvious, your call?

Traffic was busy there and back,the hearses weren't in a procession:-)They were just pootling along at 60mph behing me in queues of traffic both ways,oh yes,i will be going quicker on my bike,if i still had my Nissan 300zx turbo i think i would have scarpered to hell away from it:-)Still can't wait till test though(i think?)
