SSDC Class 2B Journey Part 3

29/1/15 Thursday - Practical Lesson 3 part 1 (Repeat and Passed)
This is my first time repeating a lesson, don't be surprise and think I'm a super genius at riding. Thanks to my pior riding experience in BBDC I already have some basic skills of riding that's why I didn't need to re-learn everything.

Since it was a repeat lesson, I already know where my weakness lies. I wasn't fast enough at figure 8 but my crank course timing is okay so I kept practicing and all my hard work is paid off and i pass!

02/2/15 Monday - Practical lesson 3 part 2
Lesson 3 part 2 is more of memorising your test route in the circuit, so long you can show the tester you can ride around the circuit independently you can move on to the next lesson.

The instructor will go 1 round and showed us where to go but maybe I was nervous or what I forgotten the sequence. Lucky I pick up and memorised my route.

09/2/15 Monday - Circuit revision and Practical Lesson 4 (Failed)
Once you pass your Lesson 3 part 2 you will unlock Lesson 4 and Circuit Revision. The instructor kept stressing that CR is important so I went for it before my Lesson 4 which will be circuit assessment. If I pass, I will be able to go on road in Lesson 5.

Unfortunately, due to nervousness I fell at crank course which gotten me a immediate failure and 16 demerit points. Super angry at myself.

16/2/15 Monday - Circuit Revision and Practical Lesson 4 (Repeat and Failed)
Due to the timings available, I can only book my CR and Lesson 4 on the same day so I didn't book CR at first. But after giving much thought about how I fail at crank course the other time I decided to book CR last minute using the SSDC website. There is an additional $0.80 surcharge! #cheapomodeon

I failed again ._.
I got 28 points. 10 points was from exiting the figure 8 I didn't notice there was a lorry at the corner and I need to stop for them, I just ride out because the lorry was at a distance away. And 6 points at E-brake, didn't hit the speed required.

Strangely I wasn't as upset as the previous time.
Going to Lesson 4 next Monday, please let me pass!
Maybe third time is a charm?
