After a very soggy day, we’ve just about dried out enough to post this Mod 2 success.
Early on Tuesday Jim Adkins set out to Greenham for his Mod 1 test, not having a clue that the day would develop a bit beyond that.
Having successfully passed his Mod 1, we hit lucky and found a spare Mod 2 test starting within an hour, so with fate appearing to be on his side, Jim jumped at the chance to do his Mod 2. At the point Jim came out to start his test the weather appeared to brighten, ‘so, it looks like we’ve got a good day for it.’
The worst of the standing water had drained and Jim demonstrated to the examiner that even in those sorts of conditions he was a safe rider, so despite the cold, wet, early ride up to Greenham ‘it’s bloomin’ well worth it Guv’nor’.
Congratulations ‘Speckled’ Jim, happy bike shopping, hopefully you’ll be coming home with your new bike today!
(For those thinking I’ve gone a little weird with some of the text above, all I’ll say is that both Stuart and Jim are huge fans of a legendary British comedy series from the 80’s and spent a large part of the training quoting it to each other, so there had to be a few references to it above 😉)
