Congratulations Carol! Now the real adventure begins! 👏😀
Well done Mrs F. Whatever fits and feels manageable don’t dismiss a sub 6. You’ve passed but the real learning starts now. 😊
Don’t get hung up on a 650 just make sure it fits you and is light enough for you to move around…. Take your time until you find the right one.
Congratulations Carol 👏 my wife passed her test almost a year ago and was also gonna buy a 650 until I convinced her to try the Triumph speed twin 900.
Yes it's a 900 but very user friendly with a low seat height and a bike you can grow with.
We stopped at lights 10 mins into the test ride and she said "this is the one ".
A year on and she loves her Triumph.
Well worth looking at 👍
Fantastic, congratulations to Carol, that wee Triumph 400 would be ideal 🙂👍👏🏼
A great personal achievement. Many congratulations to Carol.
My wife first got into biking by having a little car park ride on a Honda Grom. From then she was hooked. 5 x attempts to pass Mod 1 but she stayed positive and the riding school were amazing and very supportive. She passed her mod 2 first go.
A message to anyone who doesn’t pass but wants to continue is to keep digging and believing and you will get there! All the people I knew at the school and exam centres want you to be a biker and pass!
See you around, Andy and Carol 👍
CONGRATULATIONS Carol we have all been watching your journey to becoming a full licence holder. Enjoy what ever you get next. Don't forget we all keep learning as we ride, I have been riding bikes for 30 years and still learn new things .
Ride safe and enjoy.
Great to see another biker joining the ranks I initially learnt to ride when I was 8 years old on dirt tracks in the local quarry never got round to doing my licence until 2017 when I was 50.Now on my 2nd "big bike "and loving the riding hope you feel the same and may it continue
What an inspiration to your family. We’ll done for your perseverance. Now it’s “The Missenden Flyers” and frankly Carol your opinion in reviews is as valid and insightful as the old man’s. Please don’t allow him to hog the camera. Happy and safe riding.
Well done Carol I think I passed my test at the same place 25 years ago. The tuition was so good the examiner was virtually writing the pass certificate before the test. My advice don’t be set on an engine size. I bought a 600 Bandit which I had for about a year which I didn’t enjoy then didn’t ride for 20 something years then bought a Triumph Speedmaster 1200. It’s a heavy but very forgiving bike but what ever you choose enjoy and ride safe!
Well done Carol great to hear. Many safe and fun filled miles showing Andy how to really ride 😊
Awesome work Carol. Great to have been a part of your journey!!
Very well done Mrs TMF in passing and become a fully-fledged member of the biking community. Of course, this opens a whole new avenue for the TMF channel for a different perspective on bike/equipment/tour reviews. Indeed, perhaps there should be a Mrs TMF channel in her own right? ✅
Well done you. My wife had the same start to her biking career..300metre trip on the back of my 81 Kawa Z1000 30 years ago..no way Jose. About 8 years ago she gave it another go..same bike and shall we say ducks to water. Her first trip was touring the Alps and now I cant get her off the back..tried a wheelie but she has quite a grip. She toyed with the idea of taking the licence but dissed it as she is quite comfy as a pillion. As for what bike you get, well the world is your oyster and am sure hubby can get you a decent long test on whatever. In my youth I went 125..250..400..500..750 and then 1100 and didnt regret my small steps way. I am now on a Tiger 800 and super happy. A bike with good protection is a must I would think if you are going to traips around Andy´s scran haunts with him ;). Look forward to seeing what you end up with
Congratulations Mrs Flyer 🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations Carol, no better feeling than getting that pass certificate - the world of big bikes awaits. Enjoy!
Well done Carol! Now you to buy something you love riding, and don’t get discouraged if the first one or three don’t grab you… Andy has taken his sweet time to get bikes he’s happy with!
So true!
Damn.. that’s a depressing comment!!!
Here in India you’re lucky if you get to buy 3 bikes in your lifetime 🥲
Edit: Obviously happy for Carol!! Hope you have a great time!!
@ajinkyakhanzode890 don't be discouraged, keep working and you're own what you after.
I’m after a second bike Ive tried about 6 so far none have been good enough yet
Well done … my only advice would be to not to rush into a big bike just because you’ve passed. One advantage of passing your test is that you don’t have to worry about doing your cbt anymore. You can continue to ride 125’s IF you want to.
Hi Andy, Hi Carol, I was in a hiatus after arriving and settling down here in Scotland over a year ago (April 2023). However, been following your channel and recently enjoyed watching your ABR Festival video. Then the other day, my husband said "Hey, Mrs. Flyer passed!!!!!". I said "WHAT????" and he showed me this video. I had a hard time trying to get my bike licence in Dubai, them not having a proper bike licence methodology as extensive as it is here. With Mrs. Flyer passing, my husband is now pressing me every b***** day to get back at it. I WILL!!!!!! You've inspired me! Do inspire me more!!!! Show videos of Mrs. Flyer window shopping for her own bike. I will watch as I'm just 5'1"".....
Go on give it a go!
WELL DONE Carol, thats massive. I didn't learnt ride until my 67th birthday & wish I had done it years ago & you will be feeling the same. Well done👍
Congrats to Carol. I have shown this to my wife in the hope it spurs her on. Happy biking Carol
Morning. Great news! Well done Carol. Onwards and upwards now x
Congratulations Mrs flyer. Welcome to the rest of your fun life.
Good going Mrs C. Flyer!!! One more of us!! Big thanks!!
Congratulations Mrs TMF, AKA, Carol 👏👏👏👏awesome news, welcome to the club 😁💪
Oh wow! Well done! Passed my DAS last summer, it wasn't a natural thing for me but I'm so happy I persisted. Congratulations and be super proud of yourself! 🎉
Congratulations Carol....well done ..look forward to the search for the new bike...😅
Congratulations to Mrs Flyer!
Welcome to the club.
Congratulations Carol. My wife passed her test in 2008 which was a tick off her bucket list. She bought a new Kawasaki er6n fitted with a lowering kit so she could flat foot it. After that we have toured a few times round Scotland, Ireland and the Isle of Mann, loaded with panniers, tank bags and camping gear as well as doing many rideouts, easter egg runs, Santa runs etc. 650cc was the ideal engine size for her and was perfectly adequate in all situations given the road conditions and speed limits on our roads. Keep in mind lowering kits if you see a bike you like the look of. Once again , congratulations on passing your test and looking forward to seeing how you progress in the future.
Thank you!
Well done Carol Im not surprised you passed seeing Andy follow you the other day.
Congratulations, Mrs Confessor passed her test last year, It’s so great being able to ride out on two big(ger) bikes.
Couldn't agree more!
You got me skipping a bloody heartbeat there guys....."selling a bike followed by my wife passed".....got my stomac in straight nose dive.....then i read the end of the semtence....ugh
Congrats missus Fly🎉🎉🎉
Edit: ninja 650: comfy but damn gutless
Light weight fun RS660
Best bangs for bucks and fun and comfort : cbr650 had one before upgrading to 750 and loved it . You'll grow easily in it and will have good time touring with it too.
Want a definitive sport touring comfy bike: vfr800 but its heavy . And your growth period will need to be slow.
If money isn't an issue go for Ducati Supersport.....best sport toureer around.
I tried them all before going for a gsxr750😅
Oh I hear you already Mr Fly.... and I'll be cautious with the beast.
Have a safe summer .
Well done Carol, looking forward to seeing your new ride 👍
Stay tuned - big reveal coming soon!
Woot woot! Congratulations Carol!
Brilliant Carol. Welcome to the biking family. Ride safe and enjoy.
Thank you! Will do!
Well done Carol! As a first fun bigger bike don't dismiss the bike that's been in your garage, the Triumph Speed 400! Looks a really good fun bike and with a low seat. I'm also vertically challenged, just a little bit taller than you but with short legs! Once you get your confidence you'll be able to ride and enjoy most big bikes. With a 27" inside leg my bikes are a 1200GS, CRF300 and VFR800. Ride safe 👍
Congrats on the full bike licence Mrs Flyer! Sticking to something around 650 is a good shout while you get used to the weightier bikes that they are, and how you handle that. My sister rushed out and got a CB1000F as a first bike but a very slow speed drop really dented her confidence. She got back on two wheels on a Ninja 400 and whilst I wouldn't say she 'found the love' for biking again - she is far happier for being on that bike! Happy riding!
Congratulations 🎉
Well done Carol. Delighted to hear, this is great news. It was lovely bumping into you briefly at ABR again. A whole garage of bikes to choose from!!! 😂
A Triumph 400 joining the garage soon??!
Would be a 660 triple surely over a 400? I've rode on a few and there perfect for 1st big bike, if the seat height isn't too high that is
@@user-mf8po7dj3w as Carol is a petit lady a 400 maybe physically a better size
Congrats Mrs Flyer! Sooo many bikes to choose from. My grand daughter wanted a sport bike to start on, but we got her a Honda CB300R. From Florida, US.
Well done Carol! Now get MrFlyer to get you covered on one of the fleet that takes your fancy until you work out what bike is next.
Get what you want/are happy on.. a first ' bigger' bike is not a forever bike, just a stepping stone.
Well done Carol,so glad you stuck with it and saw it through to the end,safe riding and enjoy your new journey
Well done Carol. I think something in the 500-650cc would be ideal. I think size and weight is the most important factor for you. You need to feel comfortable on the bike and that brings confidence.
Well done Carol and Well done to all the motorcycle training schools throughout the UK 🇬🇧 & Ireland .
Pick a bike you like, a bike that makes you smile 😃
Congratulations carol on passing your test 🎊🎉
CONGRATULATIONS CAROL 🎉. Well done 👍
The biker community needs more ladies and young 'uns. Gladly, You tick both boxes 😊
Congratulations Carol. Well done you. 🎉
Congratulations on the pass
My wife is doing her direct access training this week
at 52 and a little short in the leg she is finding it hard but fingers crossed she gets a pass
Not easy being on a motorcycle these days with the heavy traffic, so congratulations Mrs F...liked and thanks as always..
Massive congratulations Carol. I passed my Mod1 and Mod 2 in May and the sense of achievement was huge.
Onwards and upwards on the journey 👌
Thank you and congratulations back at you!
Congrats Mrs Flyer! Obviously, she picked up some tips from you Andy! Looking forward to seeing her next steed!
Congratulations Carol. Enjoy picking the new bike, and ride safe.
Congratulations Carol, well done!!!
Congratulations Carol and well done.
Congratulations Carol, onward and upward. All the best👍😉
Many congrats.
My wife has her CBT next Monday and we’ve been following Carol’s journey closely.
Cool!
Congratulations Carol 🎉
Congratulations Carol.
Congratulations Carol. Enjoy 🎉
Well done Carol, you didn't really need to say anything. Your smile spoke volumes. 🤣👍🏍👌
Congratulations Carol. Your riding in a previous video was brilliant so the test was always in the bag. Enjoy & be safe.
Thank you!
Many Congratulations Carol, this is great but unexpected news as I thought this event was further down the road. I passed my motorbike test on a Lambretta GP200 back in 1972 and it was a great feeling knowing I could get a bike over 250cc. I can’t wait to see what your next motorbike will be, but wishing you many happy and safe motorbiking miles ahead. Now we have to see if Andy will be your pillion. Cheers, 🍻🥂🍷🍹
Congratulations Carol. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations Carol!!
Congratulations on passing your test. Don't fixate on a particular cc. Try a load of bikes and go with what gives you confidence, plenty of time to move on after that. Fair play for getting your test these days. I did my test in 1978 when I was 17. The test was turn up and don't fall off!!
A very big well done, Carol, it will be great to see you both out on the road together 👏
Well done Carol, great to see another lady biker on the road. 😀
Well done Mrs Flyer. Enjoy the open road on whatever you get. 👍
Congratulations Carol 🎉
Congratulations Carol, it's been great to see you progress from your CBT and early outings on the 125, to your full licence.
Thanks so much!
Congratulations Carol, see you and Andy out and about safe riding
Congratulations to Carol on getting her motorcycle license! 👍👍 Only the other day as I noticed her "L" plates I wondered how that was coming along, and not I know. Best of luck in finding a new "650" short big bike ... I fully know the challenge since my wife is 5'-1" and also hesitant about riding in the first place. Since she'd most likely be riding on-road then a lowering kit would help on a standard bike, with the other option being a cruiser-type bike.
Congratulations Carol.
Congratulations Carol 🤙😎🫡 see you on the road 🏍️
Congratulations Carol, ride safe
Congratulations Carol 🎊 🎉!!! Have fun shopping for that new bike 🏍️😃👍!
Congratulations Carol. Great achievement
Congrats Carol. Ride safe, live long mate.
Congratulations. I am also 5’2’’ but have been riding for 50 years. I currently have an SV650 with a lowering link and can touch the ground comfortably. You will find this an important factor when looking at bikes. There are heaps of bikes I would like but the seat height is the first thing I have to consider. Just get something comfortable and enjoy it
Well done Carol Flyer. You will start to learn from this point onwards. Top tip - assume everyone on the road is trying to kill you or take you out. Ride safe - have fun.
Well done, Carol. Got my full licence aged 53. I bet you are happy you do not have to look at the back of his head anymore.
Very big congratulations Carol, well done 👏
Congratulations Carol looking forward to see what you get but remember don’t force yourself do it at your own pace and of course have fun 🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️
Congratulations, passed my mod 2 last November and still learning every time I ride. Got a tracer 7gt as my 1st big bike and love it. If there's lowering options, it wouldn't be a bad shout.
Congratulations Carol-a great achievement well done, enjoy the many adventures ahead of you, wishing you safe rides and plenty of fun👍🤞
Congratulations.
Be cautious.
Enjoy.
You two crack me up!🤣 Delighted for you Carole, huge congratulations!!
Cheers Dave!
...and well done on remembering the "e" on Carole....
Congratulations Carol well done
Congratulations, Carol!
Congratulations Carol well done 👏
Well done Mrs Flyer. No more (or reduced) pillion journeys!
Huge congratulations Carol🎉
Excellent news, no surprise really as Mrs Flyer looked very confident indeed on her ride out with you to the Cassington Bike Night, look forward to seeing her out and about on her new 650.
Congratulations Carol very well done 👏
Congratulations Carole well done
Well done Carol, that's fantastic news. My Missus has been learning for the same length of time as you and has been losing heart recently. Hopefully this will act as an inspiration. Here's to some new adventures for you both!
There are always ups and downs along the way - tell her it's well worth sticking with it in the end!
Way to go carol now you can get a bigger bike stay safe and keep riding safe
Congratulations Carol. Now the fun starts. Enjoy your looking for a new bike, try loads to see what suits you.
Excellent, Congratulations Carol!
Congratulations,well done Carol 👏🏼👏🏼
