BBDC Class 2B

BBDC Class 2b   Pract 5.02 12 September 2018  Session 7: 7.20pm-9.00pm So the day has come where I would be taking my circuit evaluation. I think when I started out, I didn't dare think about reaching this step but now, achieving it really brings such satisfaction to me. Although the RC yesterday was not really good and I was pretty nervous for this. So yeah, The instructor that we got was Chen Jian Hui. hahaha I saw his nametag. He told us to go on our own first, like do whichever course that we wanted to do and then to be back at the starting point at 7.45pm. He would be going around the different courses to see us and all that. So off we went. I tried the plank first cause that was still the one that I was not confident with. I think after the tip by the instructor during my RC#1, I could really do it much much better and felt really confident. So, after that, went to ebrake, then to slope then figure 8 and crank course. I think I did farely well for this and...

BBDC Class 2b   Pract 5.01 8 September 2018  Session 3: 11.30am-1.10pm It was raining super heavily in the morning today and I was contemplating whether or not to go for the pract cause I really do not want to be riding in the rain. But, I really don't want to waste the money. So, I decided to go for it. In the end, I was happy that I went to the lesson. I will share more later. So, it turns out that I was the only one for that lesson and I got the same instructor again. I think he's called Andre or something along those lines. So, cause I was the only one and this lesson was supposed to be on pillion riding, he told me that I had to pillion him... I was super shocked like whuuuuuuuddddd... hahahaha and then I just continued on uh. For today, he shared the circuit test route, so its, start at start line, move off, after the bend, lane change to the right, turn right at number 12 then turn left at 29 and go on slope. Then exit slope turn left and continue strai...

BBDC Class 2b   Pract 4.02 4 September 2018  Session 7: 7.20pm-9.00pm Okay, So i'm back to take my 4.02. Today, the instructor teaching me was an instructor that was new to me. I never had him for any of my lessons before. However, I remember him cause there was once at the zebra crossing inside the circuit, I didn't check for pedestrian and turns out there was one instructor crossing then I just sped past. I think he was behind me and saw it so he came up to me to tell me that I need to stop next time if got pedestrian. Anyway, I found out that his name is Yusof at the end of the class. So I was really feeling lousy and not confident for this lesson. I don't know why, maybe I was feeling slightly moody also. So, I went for the lesson and we went through the same few courses. The plank I think i fell down sometimes and I managed to stay on it sometimes. After awhile, he told me that it was the last round already. I was really hoping I can stay on the plank ...

BBDC Class 2b   Pract 4.02 27 August 2018  Session 7: 7.20pm-9.00pm So, finally here at 4.02. I got the same instructor as my previous lesson. It was like, damn coincidental or something. I think cause of that, I was quite stressed cause he took me for 4.01 and if I sucked at my figure 8 then sibei malu. So we started the lesson and went through all the different courses. Can't remember which I started off with already. So, i think we started off with the plank and pylon first. I was quite surprised at myself cause the plank was quite alright, like I managed to do it within the timeframe and all. I thought that I would not be able to pass it and keep falling off the plank. Then came pylon, I don't remember ever having problems for my pylon but this time round it was bad. Like, really bad. I knocked down the cone twice. It was quite embarrassing. The first time I hit, already super malu already then the last round I hit again. I mentally slap myself on the face m...

BBDC Class 2b   Pract 4.01 1 September 2018  Session 3: 11.30am-1.20pm This is the practical that I'm most afraid of... I am afraid of the figure 8 cause I have tried it before when I was 18 or 19 and I failed terribly at it. So therefore, there is this constant fear that I'm not gonna do well and that I'm not gonna pass this. I really entered this practical with alot of fear and nervousness. So I got the same instructor againnnn.. forgot his name suddenly.. I think the way he teaches is not bad and I felt that it was gonna be okay. So, we had to do figure 8 and crank course. Figure 8 we had to go in, in gear 2, then look far ahead, press rear brake to control speed, maintain throttle and keep going, just before you reach the exit, check if got car, if have, need to kick down to gear 1 and stop, then check back, move off, check blindspot, turn left and prepare for crankcourse. For crankcourse, we had to go in in gear 2, then just go through it and before ex...
