Default Congratulations to Mrs SB - fully licensed!

Nearly forgot to mention, two days after we returned from riding 3,100km through Vietnam, through some of the busiest traffic you will ever see in Ha Noi on the last day, Mrs SB rode for her test at the notorious Stalag South Australia Rider Training Course.

She passed with flying colours!

She now joins the ranks of fully licensed motorcylists.



Well done to my gorgeous partner!

Cheers, SB

I knew of a guy who failed 18 times. Sometimes he showed up hammered and other times he crashed during the test. He would insist on taking his chopper while his friends insisted he use their bikes. He always crashed on his chopper. He finally passed on a friends bike sober but crashed his chopper something like two days after passing. That was years ago but I still find the hole thing a bit goofy. Oh, his nickname was Spaceman. That one kills me.

Anyway, I figured that Mrs. SB already had the license with all the riding she did on the trip. Not bad for a new rider. Congratulations!

She did the Vietnam trip on her learners But we had the international license endorsed with the learners certificate in case we were pulled over.

Now I have to find her a good bike - she thinks the old Suzuki GSX250 is a little long in the tooth.

Cheers, SB
