Re: Taking the test again!
Good for you! that test can be a B*#$h. I did the motorcycle safety course at Great Oaks last fall and got out of the test. It was a good class too. I was a little rusty after 20 years driving around in a cage. We'll get a Cincinnati ride together someday soon.Originally posted by QuickboatComment

ugh...I've got my final riding test next week. I have to relearn all of the gverment rules which can be ridiculous. The way I handle intersections is way better, people always take my spot or get too close to me when I do it the gov way.

I had some clown change lanes right in front of me (practically beside me) IN an intersection!Originally posted by srivett
At the next set of lights I was in front of him, so I got off my bike and asked him, "Do you know it's illegal to change lanes in the middle of an intersection?" His reply, "Didn't you see my signal?" I just shook my head and walked back to my bike. No use wasting my breath on someone who doesn't understand! :roll:

Uhhhh, let me rephrase that Sir. If you ever do that to me again, I will rip your head off your body and put it somewhere you will find extremely uncomfortable.

Just remember, Steve, that one of the questions asks what is the best angle to change lanes across rail/streetcar tracks, when you are riding parallel to the tracks.Originally posted by srivett
Obviously, the best answer is the steepest angle that is both reasonable and safely attainable, but the fools want you to answer 90 degrees, which is not possible in the described circumstances.

Good Point!
I rode for many years prior but let the licence lapse and never renwed. I am acually suffering from a mild form of vertigo induced by a head injury months ago. So besides being out of pratice I wasn't 100%. I will ride very causiously believe me.

I took the Ohio test 30 years ago and almost fell asleep taking it. Course it might have changed over the years.Originally posted by QuickboatComment

so anybody have the beta on the Colorado driving test? more specifically in Longmont? it's been real fun driving on a learner's permit again :roll: , but it's almost expired and I gotta go do it!!
how tight might they make it, and how strict on bike "shape" are they? I know my rear tire is a little bald in the center, but I've been trying to rail off the sides best I can!!
thanks all!!!Comment
