Passed my Mod 1 motorbike test....

[NotTheDuchessOfCambridge]

.....much to the surprise of the guy who had been teaching me. Mainly because I'm a girl I suspect. Had 4 hours of training with this guy, along with 3 men. He often moved my bike for me (as I'm such a snowflake), explained how the other guys were naturals (I've been riding a 125 for months and I know I'm damn good at it) and how I will struggle to get it. How he knew this after half hour of us all doing exactly the same thing to the exact same level, I don't know.
So, when it came to the test (no minors, clean sheet) I could see it actually hurt him to congratulate me. He even put me down in front of the examiner and said....ooh that U-turn looked dodgy though!
I'm dreading my Mod 2 if I have to do it with him. 4 hours of being told I'm not as good as the guys.....the joys.

Congratulations!!! Fuck him! Do the same with Mod 2 just to piss him off.

Or find another instructor, why pay him money to make you feel shit?

I know, I think I'll phone up and see if I can move my day to another instructor. It has really pissed me off.

Don't forget to leave feedback

Congrats.

Sounds like you will pass number 2

I'll absolutely leave feedback, after I've passed my Mod 2 and never have to set foot into their boys club again!

So, he's one of the idiot misogynists who thinks penis = mad skillz at all the important things. He shouldn't be teachng anyone anything!

Are you sure it's not just the age difference?

Because (teenage?) girls and boys have a lower pass rate than adult men and women.

Congrats on results so far.

I'm 39. One of the other lads was about 27 and had only ever been on a bike once before (when he did his CBT). He was just being ridiculously sexist, I think a penis must make you a better rider.
