Dang, I thought I'd finally made it onto someones 'Ignore list'. Oh well. No, I sign my first post of a thread with 'cptr and any subsequent posts in the same thread with the appreviated abbreviation.

I'm like Prince with my little symbols and purple motorbike (less hair and more belly though...).

Hi Guys..

If you are willing to travel to Enniskillen a top bike instructor Brian Mc Ger operates his own private training ground there at really reasonable prices, £35 (ish) as far as I can remember.. 0044 7968135310

Try the guys at MSA Motorcycle Safety Association as well. Good guys, they run 3 day (6 hour long each day) courses on their bike (or your own if you have one) at approx EUR850 if using theirs - will take you One to One from absolute beginner through to radio control and out on the road. They're recognised Insurance assessors as well and listed on AON and Quinn

Hi. Was just looking at their site now, and I have a question about the Insurance Assessment.

IS that instruction ? Or is it just you go along and they look at you, and if you're ok they'll give you a cert, and you get cheaper insurance ?

If I get the cert and ring Carole Nash, will they refund some of my premium ? I'm seven months into my insurance policy at this stage.

I don't know whether I should go for that, to try and save a few bob on insurance over time... or spend the money on doing the basic instruction instead.

Thanks for any thoughts.

Mine was six hours, 5 hours training for the last hour of assessment. I saved about 350 euro on 6 months insurance for a 300 euro test. Renewal coming up I'm looking at about another 500 euros. If your in early days of biking then it pays for itself.

I want to get some bike lessons (complete beginner), but they seem to be much more expensive than I thought. I see on ISM they are €140 for 2 hours :eek: Some other site think it was motorbiketraining.net, it's around €200 for 3 hours. Since a car lesson is around €35, I didn't expect a bike to be twice the price for something that costs a lot less to buy??? Does anybody know of any other places that give lessons at a more reasonable price?

Hi, Im in the same position as Tony.... Im just wondering if anyone has information on taking motorbike courses internationally.... most goods and services cost a lot less outside Ireland, Im sure biking would too... any ideas... I am a fluent Spanish speaker and would have no problem doing a course abroad... luko

Only problem with that is that learner permits are only valid in the 26 counties, so to get there could be a problem!

Brian is very good though.

I did my IBT Bike Lessons with this guy TestDriver.ie

He charged €470 for 16 hours, using his bike included. I found him very good and would defo recommend him
