Motorcycle lessons and IBT training in Finglas
Finglas sits on the north side of Dublin with quick links out towards Meath, which is how a lot of our riders here find us. Town traffic one way, open road the other.
Learning to ride from Finglas
Riders in Finglas have the best of both worlds: busy urban roads close by and quieter Meath roads a short run out. We start you somewhere calm before building up to heavier traffic. Whether you want a bike for the commute or a full licence, the path is the same.
We cover Finglas and the nearby north Dublin areas of Glasnevin, Ballymun and Cabra.
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.
IBT at Fairyhouse, pre-test in Finglas
IBT on our training ground
Your IBT happens on our training ground at Fairyhouse Racecourse, about 22 km from Finglas. You finish with your IBT certificate.
Come pass your IBT with usPre-test at the Finglas test centre
Finglas has its own RSA test centre, in Jamestown Business Park on Jamestown Road (D11 TDE9), and we do pre-tests there. If you're booked into Mulhuddart Maple House instead, in Rosemount Business Park (D11 RPE8), we cover that one too. Either way, you'll practise the U-turn, the slow ride and the emergency braking on the roads around it. We cover the rest of the RSA's Dublin test centres too.
You can check the address and the licence categories it covers on the RSA's list of test centres.
