My wife started riding pillion about 7 years ago. She has done a few European tours and attended a few rallies when she decided at age 48 she wanted to learn to ride for herself. She took her CBT locally and we bought a 125 for her to practise on. Then she booked herself on a week long direct access course. The instruction and encouragement she got on the course were invaluable and although she failed her test the first time (u-turn) she passed about 3 weeks later. She now has her own Harley and which has nearly 10,000 miles on it after just over a year. We have a holiday booked to ride Enfields in India later this year.
