    Done in the compound in a big fenced off area along with the slow ride, walking the bike etc. Can't remember off hand what checks I was asked but if you remember the acronym POWDER - Petrol, Oil, Water, Damage, Electrics and Rubber, you'll be grand.

    Good luck with the test!

    Hi Guys, I had a different understanding of hand signals and from checking up on rules of the road there is only hand signal for cars and cycle bikes and my understanding is different to the cycle bike or has it changed?

    I believed hand signals were only for cars not motorbikes am I wrong in this ??

    When I did my test I had to hand signal everything! as if there were no brake lights or indicators on the bike

    Think that changed about a dozen years ago. But yes hand signals for motorbikes do exist and you can be asked them as part of the ROTR questions (not the practical test.)

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.
