    I agree. He should change his name to Neo.Pete.

    You need to accrue 10 style points to pass, so remember to push the step ladder away before you start the bike. You'll lose style points if it just falls over when you take off.

    Also, when doing emergency stoppies, make sure your rear wheel gets at least 30cm off the ground, otherwise you lose style points for that as well.

    You can pick up extra style points by:
    - beeping your horn at slower riders,
    - snorting when the instructor talks about four finger braking, and
    - revving the engine to the redline

    Also, it is ok to drop the bike, as long as the stack is wicked cool and someone posts the video on YouTube.

    :cool:

    If you don't have a step ladder, you can use a milk crate, but you'll lose a few style points.

    Haha. I actually did that on my L's course doing a u-turn practise. It's a fun way to get special attention of the wrong kind.
