Are you being serious when you say you only did 40 minutes practise in the circuits before you were let solo?? If so, i think your instructor is playing with death and if he lets all his students loose after 40 mins...it'll just be a matter of time before an accident happens!

Sorry, just had to throw that in.....it aint your fault. how many hours did you do before you solo??
I'll remember every detail for the rest of my life, it was such an amazing experience.

Yep, 40 minutes in the circut, 5 circuits to be exact. I'd done 12 hours before, I knew I was ready for it - I could do the circuits both left and right hand just perfect! - I wouldn't have agreed if I wasn't 100% confident I could do it. I'm the only student he's let go solo after a short space of time in the circuit - But I do learn very fast, not to sound big headed.
