Motorcycle lessons and IBT training in Deansgrange
Deansgrange sits in south Dublin near Blackrock and Foxrock, an area of steady suburban traffic that gives a learner plenty to work with once the basics are in place.
Learning to ride from Deansgrange
The suburban roads around Deansgrange are good for practising the everyday skills: roundabouts, junctions and reading other drivers. We start you somewhere quiet to get the controls sorted, then bring in busier roads as you settle. It's a measured way to learn that leaves you ready for whatever the road throws up.
We cover Deansgrange and the nearby south Dublin areas of Blackrock, Cabinteely and Foxrock.
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.
