Motorcycle lessons and IBT training in Ashbourne
Ashbourne is a commuter town, and a lot of the riders we train from here are after a bike to skip the M2 traffic into the city. Whatever's brought you to it, we'll get you riding safely and legally.
Lessons that fit around the commute
If you live in Ashbourne and you're learning to ride, the chances are you want to use the bike for getting to work, so we focus on the things that actually matter day to day: filtering safely, holding your road position in heavy traffic and staying visible. We start somewhere quiet before taking on busier roads and heavier traffic.
We cover Ashbourne and the nearby towns of Ratoath, Dunshaughlin and across to the north Dublin border.
Bike and gear provided
No machine of your own? You'll ride ours, with the gear sorted, so there's nothing to buy before you start.
Small groups
On the road it's usually one or two riders per instructor: calm, RSA approved and at a pace that suits you.
Built around your test
Everything ties back to what the examiner wants, so you're ready when test day comes.
