From the yard to the open road.

Our training ground is at Fairyhouse Racecourse in Ratoath, Co. Meath. Every rider starts off-road on the yard, with a briefing in the classroom and kit from our gear room. When you're ready, we take it out onto the local roads. Coming from Dublin? See our motorbike lessons for Dublin riders.

Four steps to riding legally.

You can't start any motorcycle training without a valid learner permit. Here's the order it all happens in. Our motorbike licence guide goes through each step, with the categories and what it all costs.

  1. Theory

    Driver Theory Test

    Sit and pass the motorcycle theory test (category AM, the same test for every bike licence). This is where everyone starts.

    Book it now
  2. Permit

    Apply for a learner permit

    Once you've passed theory, apply for your learner permit from the NDLS.

    Get your learner permit
  3. IBT

    With permit in hand, give us a call. 16 hours, or 18 for A2 and A, over two full days in a row.

  4. Test

    Sit your driving test

    Apply within two years of your permit. We'll get you ready with a pre-test run.

  1. Certified instructors

    RSA approved driving instructors and IBT approved trainers. Years of real road experience behind every lesson.

  2. Everything provided

    You don't need your own bike or kit. We supply the motorcycle, helmet, gloves and jacket, all the PPE included.

  3. Patient with beginners

    Most riders come to us having never sat on a bike. We start slow, build confidence, and never rush you.

  4. Flexible scheduling

    Weekend and evening sessions available. We work around your shifts, not the other way round.

  5. Covering a wide area

    Riders come to us at Fairyhouse from across Meath, Westmeath, Dublin, Kildare and Louth.

  6. Pre-test that works

    Our mock test is the reason so many riders pass first time. We show you exactly what to watch for.
