October1996 in Hull on yamaha sr125. I never bothered when I was a young un,just had small bikes then, a francis barnet, a c15 beeza, a cb160 and a 500ajs combo and an enfield red hunter combo,I met my future missus when i was 17 and she wasn't interested in bikes, so passed car test instead. Bought a honda tl125s in 1976 just to ride trials and I still have that today,its my next resto after the 250n.

I did mine in 2000, on a Kawasaki ER5. Got my Honda CB500 two months later (there was a waiting list for them then), had the SD a a love gift in 2001, I am still riding around on the same old bikes now (how boring...)

Just checked my licence - and I am mistaken. I passed on the 1st November, not October as previously stated.....I took a weeks intensive course starting on the Monday.
I think that date was a Saturday. I apologise for misleading everyone.
