I just got my class 6L (already have a class 5) today; it says "MST may not be taken prior to May 18; Road test may not be taken before Jun 3".

The 14 day wait for the MST/MSA is not required if you take a ICBC accredited school. IE I did my MSA at the school within a week of getting my learners and I was able to ride on the road by myself. The Road test I still had to wait the month, but the school got me more than ready for it. I got two demerits for shifting in an intersection while turning, ha ha.

when you're going for your road test, can ICBC provide you with a bike or you have to bring your own?

Has anyone gone through BCSC?
I just passed the written test but its kind of late in the year to do it so I am planning to take a course next year. My initial choice is BCSC because its very close to where I work, which is not too far from where I live. But seeing that everyone here is recommending PRS in Surrey, is it that much better to justify going all the way to Surrey just to take a course?

I strongly recommend them to all new riders.

Justice Institute of BC bought most of the bikes, the rights to the curriculum, just about everything else you need to run a school and hired most of the Instructors. Check them out at http://<br />
<br />
http://learni...12211805380241
They are doing the basic skills course and the traffic course as well.
Some of the senior instructors split off and set up Roadcraft Motorcycle Acadamy at http://www.roadcraftacademy.com/
They only do experienced rider courses - this will be the school to watch.
