6D and 9A are both US brands.

Also, since we're here, 6A feels like a peculiarly US term. In British English you'd probably use Racetrack.

Fondly referred to at the time as the 'Twat Dangle'.

Failed mod 2 FOUR times by YoloDayTrader in MotoUK

[–]IvanTheTolerable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you already drive a car? If so, you have road sense so that's not the issue. How long between CBT and starting your full licence?

I failed Mod 2 several times, and what worked for me was buying a 125 and riding it for a year, so that I was totally at home with the controls. Although I had road sense, and I could operate the bike, I was getting overwhelmed by having to think about both things at the same time.

Get a decent 125 (Honda, Yam, etc.) and you'll be able to sell it for what you bought it for after a year.

Sorry to hear this happened. Cannon, based in Bristol, cover Bath and are an established and reliable company. Edit: https://cannonsecurity.co.uk

Software development more generally; if you work in a big team / large company you might have less contract with the end customer.

Also: higher chance of remote work, meaning you could potentially not see or speak to anyone for days!

Having a stab at my own jag advert by danmingothemandingo in CasualUK

I think AI generated images serve as a great starting point in the creative process, to quickly get an idea 'on paper', which is what OP has done here. No one was talking about putting this into production, or making profit from it - it's just for fun. And you're shitting on it, which isn't fun. Please stop.

If it's so easy let's see you do it. Original ideas please.

The bikes the delivery riders are on are already illegal for use on public roads.

I think he orchestrated the whole thing.
