Just passed my test...

...in Wicklow Town, no ticks.

One thing the marker said at the end was "a lot of it is about how you come in prepared"...Not too sure what he means exactly, but to explain; we were both friendly and upbeat in our introduction. I was wearing all the commuter type gear (i.e., not racing jackets), and had all my documentation, etc. When handing my license, I also placed my passport on the desk with my IBT cert sticking out, so he'd see that I was prepared. I was also humble, and probably showing a healthy bit of nervousness, but confident.

So...keep all that in mind when doing your test! Appearing responsible and showing him you know he's the boss, probably plays a bigger part than we think...

Another interesting note was that he told me that the pass rate is higher than that for cars...

Btw, I had had a pre-test with David Lyons, I recommend.
