Now Licensed

The Indiana BMV is closed on Mondays, so I had to wait until Tuesday.  I got there about 10 minutes after it opened.  I was number 33.  It was fairly packed, but moved quickly.  I used the time to browse bikes as I waited.  Doing that, the time cruised right by.

The process was fairly pain free.  I showed them the certificate I received for passing the class and my current driver's license.  They took a new picture and filled out some paperwork.  They gave me a temporary print out license and said the official one will come in the mail.  Before I got up, I scanned the paper to make sure the motorcycle endorsement was listed.  I'd been advised to check that before leaving.  I asked where it was listed and they showed me.  It was marked.  I was set.

With that I'm now licensed to drive on the roads!  With my nearly 12 hours of bike ride time :)  However, technically to be legal on the roads, all you have to do is take a written test and get the permit.  So while it sounds funny, I'm actually a step up from the base requirements, so there :)
