    You know what's really great, I watched this vid about 10 times, rode the route about 3 times. On mod2 day, we drive towards the exit and he goes 'turn right..' Ended up going through Port wood, up new Zealand road, turncroft lane, Marple road, up otterspool, back through bredbury green, back to center. Still passed though on a cg125 so would like to say cheers again!😂

    Hi matey 👍 well done for passing your motorcycle test and be safe and keep looking left and right when coming up to side roads just incase there is a car or whatever speeds out in front of you. And try and stay out of the green cycle box and bus lanes there is time were your not to ride in them because they are for the buses only. But take good care of yourself and stay safe etc etc 👍👍👍👍 thanks from mark and i enjoyed watching you on your motorcycle exam test and you passed 👍👍👍

  • @philcaffrey
    @philcaffrey 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video thanks. Re your cycle box question, it is clear cut - motor vehicles including motorbikes must stop at the first stop line and not enter the box. The occasions when you are permitted to be in the box will be very few and far between and only in the circumstances you said i.e. where you are already over the first line when the lights change - this will be rare.
    Thanks for the vid - really helpful.

Had my first "Can you pull up on the left when safe" as soon as I left the test centre, followed by "So you can remove your keys from the top box". Bloody keyless systems. Also, nice examineer, said over the radio as I was pulling in at the end of the test at the center "congratulations, you have passed" no waiting at all.

    Congrats mate well done. With regards to the green box. It’s called an ASL (Advanced stop line) and it’s specifically for cyclists. It’s purpose is to allow cyclists to sit at the front of traffic so that they can be seen. (Well that’s the theory anyway). Crossing either of the lines in a motorised vehicle on a red light actually carries a fine for both lines. Other than that, looked like a top ride pal. 👍

      Tony is correct. The advanced stop line is the one for all motorists to stop at. You must stop before that line on amber if it's safe to do so and you must not go over it on a red.
      The line at the front of the cycle box is the secondary stop line. You must not pass on amber if its safe to stop before it and you must not pass it on a red.
      You could and should have stopped before the advanced stop line but you went over it just before red, so as you were a new rider, he gave you the benefit of the doubt.
      If it had gone red before you passed over it, I'm sure it would have been a fail.
      It was pretty close.

    Nerve wracking to watch. “Make good progress” was my instructors advice i.e. ride to the speed limit. I lost a point for not overtaking a car with a trailer on a hill, thought it would be a bit boy racer on my test! Examiner asked me what action I could have taken “ I could have overtaken” - “no should have overtaken” he said! Shoulder checks a must and watch out for the dithering pedestrian at a zebra crossing that will f**k up your test. Personally I wouldn’t go into the green cyclist box. Great ride and well done for the the pass.

    @boobic55 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just watched your video and apologies for being late to the party but one question I have always had, is why anyone would go for the A1 licence and not the straight 'A' licence as it restricts you to the size of bike you can ride? I appreciate you say you had only been riding for 3 months and self taught up to this point. I also understand that for the A licence you do have to take the test on a bigger machine - so have to hire one from a training school and of course, it helps if you have a lesson or two on that machine so you get used to and comfortable with it. Again, costs a bit more but if you were taking a car test you would probably take 10 lessons or more first, so to me it makes sense to factor that in.
    Final question, after passing your test a year ago, are you still riding the same size bike or did you hanker for something a little bigger/sportier? And if so, did you take the full A licence yet?

    I reckon the left handed turn is the one at 18:45, just before you said you were looking for it. I think you should be a bit nearer the kerb as it's a blind corner and the traffic coming down the hill could cut their corner off, which would place them over the line and extremely close to you. That's my thinking, anyway. Great video.

    Very nice ride. Well done. Can't for the life of me work out where the lefthand turn was where you picked up a minor. I'm surprised that stopping in that cycle box at the lights didn't get you a fail, to be honest. I thought that was considered pretty serious. Also, the right turn at the end when you lost him looked a little dicey from a test point of view. That's exactly how you should drive normally but you're basically turning on red (or, at least, that's what it looks like in the video), which I would have thought would spell trouble in a test. That said, I'm not an experienced motorcyclist so maybe I'm wrong, but I definitely would have waited behind the cycle box (and therefore would have had to wait. Anyone know what the correct procedure is here, please?

      Hi Mark, yes I only did the A1 licence, which is up to a 125cc, so you are allowed to ride your own to the test centre ( as you've done the CBT and are insured). If it was the A2 licence (approx 300cc) or the DAS (unlimited cc) then you wouldn't be allowed to ride your own bike there as you have not passed the test and are therefore unable to insure it.
