Hi everybody - and a first question
 

Hi everybody,

Glad I joined today Horizons Unlimited...so much interesting stuff at first glance.

A first question. I have lived for seven and half year in Armenia and I am now back to France. Upon arriving I have discovered that my motorbike license is not accepted by French authorities, save the first year of moving in, and they won't (as for many ex-soviet countries) exchange it for a French license. I guess I have to pass the tests again in France and this is what I am already preparing myself to do. But if anyone has another idea of what to do with it, please let me know.

In the meantime my salutations to all - I am looking forward to meeting nice people who share my passion.

Best,

Christian

Hi Christian,

Welcome to the HUBB :)

Unless you have proof of previously passing the motorcycle test in France or another country with a reciprocal arrangement with France then you will probably have to do your test again. I had to do re take my motorcycle test when I moved to Canada after riding in Europe for over 20 years, once the examiner realised that I could ride ok the test lasted about 7 minutes!

Good Luck!

Dear Grif,

Thank you for your reply. This is what I have figured. Well I guess what needs to be done, has to be done. So I shall take the test again.

All the best to you and enjoy the next ride,

Christian

Բարեւ, It would be interesting to read any ride reports you may have of travels in Armenia. I visited the country, all too briefly, last year. Wonderful place, shame about the police! :biggrin:
