    Motorcycle license advice

    Well, after having my learners for about 20 years, and owning more than 1 bike many moons ago , I'm thinking about getting a bike again (now I also own a Defender for rainy days - not like the old days!).

    I really should have got my license by now, just never really got around to it, and then stopped riding. Unfortunately, I missed the boat before they changed the QRide rules, and it seems now I'll have to go through the LAMS procedure. This means reistricted bikes for a least 12 months, but luckily the model I'm thinking of (BMW F650GS) is allowed.

    Anyway, anyone able to recommend a good QRide mob in SE QLD?

    BTW - I couldn;t find a 2 wheeled section of the forum. Did I not look hard enough, or would it be a good idea if one doesn't already exist?

    I got mine under old qride and went with a well known American bike retailer in Bris. I am sure you know the one. It was a total joke. Spent most of the time watching people falling over in the car park. It cost a lot more than expected because the class all progressed at the same rate. So you had to keep doing figure eights until the the worst riders stopped crying and you could progress to the next skill test....so you guessed it... Sorry you will have to come back next week for the rest of the class more dollars :mad had very little time on the road

    I'm a moderator in a group called canberrariders. Even though you're up north, we have lots of advice to give and a couple of Qld members. Join up and ask questions.
