Here's hoping you keep it long enough to ride over for the supers and dont forget the secret.........never ride in lead position or tail end charlie :wink:

Now I know Jas will say it doesn't happen, but believe me from my experience, the buggers will be on the look out to take you down again so ride careful

All the best mate and I won't be entering cause I am hoping you make the 12 months trouble free
I'm with Rossi, was good to meet ya last time so would like to see ya at the Supers

Yeah ive been in the same boat.I did my brief for 12 months and when i got my licence back they wanted to take it again as i was over the 12 points due to the 8 points i got from the original speeding infringment.
So i opted for the 12 month good behavior bond(yeah right)which i am still on,i have 3 months to go.All my mates said i wouldnt make it,and i have prolly ridden more in the last 12 months than ever,including couriering.I think the trick is to be a bit more selective on where you want to speed.If you are like me i used to speed pretty much everywhere,but now im a lot more selective and pretty much sit on the speed limit around town and well known cop infested roads.I know there is no guarintee,that if you speed you wont get caught,but you can minimise the risk.
Botton line is its in your hands,i hope you get through.
In the end you will get sick of not having a licence.
A mate of mine lost his for a total of 26 months over a 3 year period,
all for speeding related offences.The real piss off is as well as not being mobile to drive or ride,it also affects your work situation and social life,because sooner or later your mates will get sick of carting you around everywhere.

A new license just in time for the Xmas/New year police blitz eh!.... Don't worry, I predict you will get through the silly season unscathed. However your good fortune will make you cocky, and you will subsequently be clocked 5kph over the limit on Australia Day. :D

I'm midway through a 12mth good behaviour period too, so best of luck from one loser to another. :D

I predict you will ride very politely for approximately 2 months...

At this point you will start "experimenting" with the occasional wheelie....

Then 14 weeks from the day you get your license, some doofus in a V8 ute will rev his engine next to you at the lights.... You will feel you need to prove something and pull a 200m long wheelie... Unfortunately while your front wheel is at 1 o clock, a police car will appear out of a side road...

You will do a runner, and after a few seconds they give up the chase, but show up at your house after dinner, where they arrest you on the spot and you end up in jail for a month. Your license will be revoked at this point and you will not be allowed to re-apply for one for 8 years. Without a license your employability will drop down to almost nothing, so you move close to the city sothat you can take public transport.... Your girlfriend hates the new neigbourhood and cannot stand it any more and she leaves you.... The polutants in the air kill your budgie and leave your lungs feeling tight and sore... The old building has asbestos in the roof and you end up with Mesothelioma. Your friends dont want to hang out with someone who carries an air bottle around with them and sounds like a creaky door when talking.....

Oh.... Uhm.... yeah.... 14 weeks....
