Teach them to listen to what they are told in the lessons. (Ex Despatch rider, test taken 1981) Rather the plastic power rangers failed than passed and made a mockery of real riders. ( For the cynical out there that watch this, still not got a bike since the last one. However the heart is still there, sons come first. I`ll be back. Watch this space) -- If you can keep your head while all about you are losing theirs, you probably haven't grasped the seriousness of the situation!
