    Tip for new players.. if you are on your NSW P's and over 26, you are on Ps for 18 months, although after 12 months you are ELIGIBLE for your fulls.. you do not automatically gain to your fulls.

    I misunderstood this until I read it closely.. lucky I haven't been riding since March..
    Any hooooo.. as of TODAY I am unrestricted!! woo! and hopefully will have Scarlett back on the road next month after a full bottom end rebuild.
    Heres to a long and glorious riding season ^_^

    Yup. I called up first (ages ago actually) to get the exact date as it saved on the guessing. Then just rocked up this morning and said I want my full licence. Filled out a form and paid 25 bucks and it was done.

    I'm considering bobber (ok, I already have the kit bookmarked..) but I'm starting to toss up between that and more simple streamlined/every day look, something abit more functional then a bobber but less bulky then the current look.
