    I'm thinking of getting my bike license (already hold a full uk car
    license) and am over 21 years old.

    I know i have to take the CBT test, then a theory test, then i have a
    choice of what pratical test i want,

    just have a few questions on the whole procedure..
    how long does it normally take to do all this, (i have no bike
    experience)
    do learning centres provide cbt/theory/pratical tests?

    my final question is with regards to the actual pratical test,
    which route is best recommended? taking the direct access course? or
    the A1 license?

    any recomendations on beginners bikes would be great

    Thank you
    Fatou

    Yes, yes, but only after his moules be shown to the four winds, his
    welchet be torn asunder etc. These things have to be done properly.

    Remind me, the welchet: two fingers' breadth up and slightly to the
    right of the figgin in your average adult, right?

    Well, you're talking /average/, yeah, maybe. There are some regional
    variations though. Don't even bother if you can't locate the moules
    with one hand.
