went for my first prac 1 last night, spent the entire time falling at the tyre wall.

kept falling till my super patient instructor asked me to go and rest for the last 20mins or so... i think he got tired of picking up my bike for me.

if i rem correctly, they asked us to " bump onto the tyres" and did nt say " brake if u can" so we just follow instructions and " bump"... next time, try half clutch, close throttle, before u hit the tyre, clutch in and REAR brake and left leg down to stop ur fall..

hey thanks, i'll keep in mind (:

 

i tried putting my left leg down but i'll have to tiptoe and slant my bike as well, due to my height... and when i slant it, i'll feel the bike falling..

im sorry but, any other female riders out there that's around 155cm tall that can share how they did it? will be much appreciated!

i'm 159cm, so when i did my tyre crash, i had to tip toe while back paddling too. what i do now is, when i stop, just try to lean my weight a lil more to the left and bike will slant to the left more easily as i put my leg down. Anticipate the bike's weight on ur left leg and dont worry how much the bike slant, just make sure ur left foot is TOTALLY touching the ground, tip toe wont support the weight.. once u are over the "back paddle" up slope, it will be better. hope it helps and gd luck for ur next pract !

you can always try to slant your own weight down on de left side(shift ur butt off de seat)

 

you know, like scramble rider always do.

 

but, do it on your own comfy ways la. everyone have different pattern when start out

 

for me, when i jus took 2B, i asked for low-cut seat(BBDC) idk whether CDC have de same low-cut seat bike available or not.

[pluslin]

thankyou both arae136 and BlurLing for the suggestions!

i hope i'll do better the next prac (: thanks!

for ur 1st question, u DONT have to clear ALL 4 at 1 TIME - so accumulate.

 

for ur 2nd que, u can book any slots available on ur screen, u can always book 2 slots at 1 time( same week, next day, whatsoever. ) , but make sure u cancel ur 2ND SLOT in more than 48 hrs beforehand else u have to forfeit ur $.

 

hope it helps. gd luck.
