Motorcycle lessons and IBT training in Trim

Trim sits in some of the best learner country in Meath. The roads around the castle and out along the Boyne are quiet enough to practise on but varied enough to teach you something every time you ride.

Riders from the heart of Meath

We've taught a lot of riders who live in Trim and the surrounding townlands. A first session starts somewhere calm, then moves on to gears and road position as you get the hang of it. By the time your test comes around you'll have ridden every kind of road you're likely to face.

We also train riders from Laracor, the Kilcock road and Summerhill.

  • 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.
