Default DMV Test

I passed I passed! I even did the two wheel motorcycle course on the Spyder and I passed! I was so close on the U-Turn Box, the inspector said she was surprised that I almost had the box.

I did it! Now for the weather to hold old so I can ride to work tomorrow.

I did my first solo ride home from DMV because Erik had to go and get Antonia from camp. I did it! Wow, what an amazing feeling, I did it!

Thank you. It was weird riding home without my husband back there. Tomorrow could be my first ride to work. I am a little nervous. Thinking about not doing it. Rush hour in DC is a whole new thing.

Yes, confidence is a big part of riding and passing the test so easily definitely made me feel more confident in my ablities. Three days now, riding to work, if feels great.
