I've been thinking about my course.
If I fail, its going to take me about a year to fail.
So I think if I fail this course, I'll have to work my hands to the bone to pay back my loan, but by which point I'll have had my bike licence long enough to train as a bike instructor - much cheaper to start out and a damm sight easier than what I'm training in at the moment (car driving instructor).
When I've had my bike licence 3 years (two and a half left!!), I can do a six day course costing £800, which will let me teach CBTs, which is the introductory bike licence, which covers you for mopeds if you are 16 and motorcycles up to 125 cc if you are 17 or over (no pillions and no motorway riding with a pathetic 14.6 bhp power limit).
Hell, its not what I'm going for, but it is an option. I might make some money, I might lose some, but you never fucking know until you try, eh?
