It’s supposed to rain for my road test on Wednesday 😭. Please help!
I posted this in the New Riders sub but then realized I probably want/need experienced riders’ perspective/advice/help!
I have had my road test booked for 3 months (they’re hard to get during the summer so I booked it far in advance giving myself tons of time for practice and July isn’t normally rainy here -> BC, Canada).
So far I have avoided riding in the rain (got caught in a light drizzle for about 5 minutes, that’s it, and that was bad enough with the water on my face shield).
Anywho-does anyone have any tips for me? I have all the gear but now I’m super afraid of low-siding if they ask me to make a sharp turn through a puddle. Braking distance and speed on straights should be fine but it’s the turning km worried about and I definitely have to do at least one u-turn. Also the visibility. I’ve been practicing and am (was 😣) confident but now I’m thrown. Always a chance the weather will change but also I know my luck 😤.
Help me please! 🙏🏻
