Sorted the dual light mod - and now I am no longer blind in one eye.
Had a 4 hour lesson yesterday evening and came home pretty dispirited. Had an absolute shocker and would've failed the test at least eight times over. I can't get my head around the need to look left and look right when speeding up or slowing down. It seem unnatural and unecessary but I know the examiner is looking for it. I totally missed a 20mph zone. Why look to your right when going ahead at a roundabout? I am more concerned about someone coming from my left and not stopping. It makes no sense to look right where cars beside and behind you on a roundabout can already see you and know you're there. Never saw a sodding great road sign. It is ridiculous. I'd never do those things in a car.
Still going ahead with the test tomorrow and hoping I can nail it on the day. But think I'll be driving to the in-laws on Friday and not riding.
