The common elements shared by all three Module One riding the circuit exercises are:

• Select 1st gear
• Carry out rear observations
• Ride across the test centre
• Select 2nd gear as you ride across (max 20 mph)

• Entering the curve, aim for 1 mtr from red cones
• Locate the second cone away from the centre red cone 
• When in position, turn towards blue cones
• On exit from curve, aim for 1 mtr from blue cones
• Avoid fixating on cones
