That is fantastic news, Vulpes! Maybe she was less nervous because you were off in the Alps on Speedy?! Just kidding. You two will have much to celebrate upon your return. One of the best women riders that I know definitely didn't pass her BRC (Basic Rider Course) with flying colors either but it didn't hurt her one bit. In fact, I suspect it made her even more determined to become highly skilled. Please give Mrs. V a big congratulatory hug and best wishes from Mr. Sandi and me!
To be fair @Sandi T and @Vulpes I think I’d probably fail the test these days. Sure, lots of wisdom and road craft etc but as for someone following me with a critical eye? I’d be a bag of nerves.
Brilliant, well done Mrs Vulpes - I have been following her story whilst lurking on here before joining
Vulpes / Mrs Vulpes We knew you would. and i say congratulations for the future and the street triple. Do keep talking to us and let us know how things are going. And i sure Vulpes has told you the triple is a completely different animal so i won't bore you silly. Joe.
Mrs. V just read all your comments and thanks you all for the congrats. She was elated you were all so happy for her. Sadly this will probably mean I will have less access to the striple... (thanks @Ducatitotriumph ... )... we'll be off tomorrow on our first proper ride-out together!
I’d manage, but only if I read slowly. To be fair, that text looks almost (but not quite) as incomprehensible as Welsh. Random selections of letters. The Welsh took all the consonants whereas the Dutch took all the vowels… Mix the two together and you get English. Statistically the letter E is the most used in English, O seems to be very popular in Dutch.
Interesting statistics, although in that poster 25% of readable letters are o and only 6% are e - very different to the official line giving it a standard deviation of er, a lot… Edit: can’t believe I just counted the sodding letters!
