Can't make a long post, so I'll keep it short.   I passed my motorcycle endorsement test today... my second attempt after my  experience last week with the Georgia DMV.

Long story short:  
-I locked up the brake on the e-stop immediately, but didn't skid as far as I'd though I would

Also:
-The lady who administered the test last week was the one who did my paperwork today after I passed.  We had a good little chat about the test, and some of the characters that have taken it there, including one joker on a Harley that showed up *and passed* in SANDALS (since it wasn't technically against the rules as the soles of his feet were covered... she had to let him test).

The lady said that my swerves could have been wider... but I saw that as a function of speed.  I was going quite a bit faster on the first swerve than the second (second one was better).  Their method for making sure you're at the 12-18 mph speed is quite flawed.

Anyways.... i look forward to eventually taking msf if my old roommate ever gets around too it (which unfortunately might be in the freakin WINTER when its freezing!)

Excellent.  Nothing like knowing what they're looking for and handing it to'em.  :thumb:

You'll always notice the fool that doesn't consider the consequences of their actions.  You'll just have to ride your own ride and let the others do the same.  Unless they're breaking the law and you're law enforcement, you'll just have to ride on.

Congradulations.  It's nice to be legal.  And if your old roommate isn't motivated, sigh up without'em.  It's a blast even if you're attending solo.  :)
