Congratulations to Seamus and Robert on smashing your IBT renewal! 🏍️😎
Life has a funny way of getting in the way of our grand motorcycle plans and somehow two years disappeared before either of you got around to the test. Don't worry, you're definitely not the first and you certainly won't be the last. It happens to the best of us.
I only met Seamus last Sunday and today he casually rolled in on his gorgeous Africa Twin like he'd been hiding it from me all along. Plenty of experience, loads of skill and the bike wasn't too bad either. 😅
Robert is a familiar face. We first met two years ago on his very first IBT. Back then I could already see the talent. Today I met a more experienced, responsible rider who's getting ready to commute to college on his own bike. That's a serious upgrade from the learner days.
Yesterday was all about polishing riding positions, sharpening observations and enjoying a cracking spin around the Kildare roads. There was plenty of learning, plenty of laughs and thankfully nobody managed to give me a heart attack.
Thanks for the patience, the great attitude and the constant smiles. Now there are no more excuses. Get those tests booked, keep practicing and finish the job properly.
Wishing you both miles of smiles, safe adventures and I'll be expecting to see those pass certificates very soon. No pressure... well, maybe just a little. 😉🏍️

‼️FIRST ATTEMPT ‼️
Massive congratulations to Ian on passing his motorcycle test today at the FIRST ATTEMPT! 🏍️🥳
Ian came to me at the end of last year for his IBT renewal and that's when the mission began. The test date eventually arrived, we got a few pretest lessons under our belts and, in between them, I spent an impressive amount of energy trying to convince him that practising was actually a good idea.
Unfortunately, Ian has mastered the art of being completely unbothered. Every suggestion was met with the same legendary response... "It'll be grand." 😅 Little by little I started losing hope that my motivational speeches were achieving anything.
Well... today Ian proved me completely wrong.
He arrived at the test centre relaxed, smiling, full of confidence and already planning the trip to Spain. In his head, the bike was already strapped onto the ferry before the examiner had even said, "You passed." 😂
He rode exactly the way he needed to. Calm, smooth and full of confidence. Those are the tests instructors never forget, because everything just comes together at the right moment.
Ian, I'm absolutely delighted for you and incredibly proud of your performance today. You've earned every bit of that licence.
Now stop talking about Spain and actually go there! Wishing you countless adventures, endless smiles and many happy miles. Ride safe and enjoy every second of it. 🏍️😎

‼️Massive congratulations to Wayne and John on completing your IBT over the weekend! 🏍️😎‼️
Every great biker starts somewhere and, just to keep things interesting, we kicked off with a few wobbles. Thankfully, the lads got those out of the way pretty quickly. Day one was all about the basics, slow control and, of course, surviving several hours of my world famous yapping. Somehow they managed.
Day two began with a healthy dose of Rules of the Road. I have to give special mention to poor Wayne, who came dangerously close to using the classroom as a place for a Sunday morning nap. Fair play, he stayed awake... mostly. 😴😂
Once we finally escaped onto the public roads, everything started to click. Junctions were handled with confidence, roundabouts were nearly textbook, and after the first blast of wind trying to rip their heads off, both lads realised that's just part of the fun of motorcycling.
The sheep in the Curragh gave us their usual judgemental looks, Kilcullen welcomed us, Newbridge survived our visit and, somehow, even Naas behaved itself for a change.
Two days later we finished exactly how every IBT should end. Tired, smiling and all still in one piece.
Wayne and John, it was a pleasure teaching you both. Congratulations again, enjoy every single mile, stay safe and hopefully I'll see you both out on the road very soon. Welcome to the addiction! 🏍️😎

‼️FIRST ATTEMPT ‼️
Massive congratulations to Vlad on passing his motorcycle test today! 🏍️🥳
It all started last year when his brother Aleks smashed his own motorcycle test. It clearly runs in the family because not long afterwards Vlad turned up for his January IBT. It didn't take long to discover that he had a natural talent for bikes. The only sensible thing left to do was to buy himself a gorgeous machine and catch the biking bug properly😎
Being an ADI himself, Vlad knows exactly what it means to have a bursting diary with students and very little time to breathe. That is exactly why motorcycles are such a dangerous hobby. They become the perfect excuse to disappear for "just an hour" and somehow return half a day later with a massive smile.
Training Vlad was an instructor's dream. Every bit of advice was taken on board, every correction was put into practice, and he approached everything with the professionalism you'd expect from someone who teaches for a living. It almost felt unfair how easy he made my job.😅
Today he went into the test calm, confident and fully prepared, and the result speaks for itself. Another ADI brother has officially joined the fully licensed biker club.
I couldn't be prouder of you, Vlad. Welcome properly to the MBA biking family. Hopefully from now on we'll meet less in the test centre and more on the road for a good spin and plenty of laughs.
Many happy miles, enjoy every adventure, and keep that smile under the helmet. You've earned every bit of it! 😎🏍️

‼️FIRST ATTEMPT ‼️
Massive congratulations to Michael on smashing his motorcycle test at the FIRST ATTEMPT! 🏍️🥳

Michael only recently joined us for his IBT renewal with Ivan, followed by two pretest lessons with myself. It didn't take long to realise this man was hiding a proper rider behind that calm smile. Some people make an instructor earn every penny. Michael did the exact opposite.

Being a teacher definitely helped. He listened, took everything on board, asked the right questions and, most importantly, actually did what he was told. If only everyone made life that easy! I was almost starting to wonder if I was even needed. No drama, no panic, no unnecessary excitement. Just plenty of laughs, loads of confidence and solid riding from start to finish.

Massive well done, Michael. It was an absolute pleasure working with you. Enjoy every mile, stay safe, keep that smile, and I'll see you out on the road soon. Your instructor couldn't be prouder! 😎🏍️

‼️Massive congratulations to Edvin on smashing his motorcycle test today! 🏍🔥‼️
Some people turn up for their test on a nice, sensible bike. Edvin looked at those people, laughed, and arrived on an absolute battleship. Whoever has the courage to do a U turn on a machine that size deserves a medal before the test even starts. 😅
Edvin came to me for his IBT renewal and not long after that the test date landed. Every single lesson he got better, smoother and more confident. Honestly, it was ridiculous how much he improved every time I saw him. By test day there was no panic, no drama, just a big smile and the confidence of a man who knew exactly what he was doing.
That famous U turn on that massive bike? Piece of cake. Not a wobble, not a complaint, just another job done. There was simply no stopping him today.
A pass with just one tiny mistake, which is hardly worth mentioning. The examiner probably spent longer looking for something to write down than Edvin spent worrying about the test.
I'm absolutely delighted for you, Edvin. You should be incredibly proud of yourself because I certainly am. Thank you for making your instructor look good! 😎
Enjoy every mile, stay safe and I'll see you out on the road. 🏍

‼️Massive congratulations to Paweł and Kajetan on completing their IBT over this absolutely glamorous weekend.‼️
If every IBT was like this, I'd probably never complain about working weekends again.
From the very beginning it was obvious these two had something special. A proper mix of natural talent, motocross experience and just the right amount of confidence to keep me entertained. We started nice and easy... for about ten minutes. Before I knew it, it felt less like IBT and more like the qualifying session for a local championship. 😎
To be fair, I wasn't making life easy for them either, but somehow they just kept getting everything right. Very annoying from an instructor's point of view when you've nothing left to correct!
Sunday's road ride felt more like a spin with two mates than an IBT. We dealt with sheep, horses, a healthy collection of drivers who probably found their licences in cereal boxes, and most importantly the lads got a proper lesson in just how invisible motorcycles can be on the road.
Thanks for an absolutely brilliant weekend. Your passion for bikes, great attitude and permanent smiles reminded me exactly why I love this job.
Ride safe tomorrow, enjoy every mile and remember... now the real addiction begins. 🏍️😎

‼️FIRST ATTEMPT ‼️
⚠️ZERO FAULTS ⚠️
Massive congratulations to James on passing his Category A motorcycle test today at the FIRST ATTEMPT with a ZERO FAULT ride! 🏍️💯
It all started at the end of last year with a simple phone call. James wanted to book his IBT because his first bike was arriving in January.
Naturally I asked what sensible beginner bike he had chosen.
S1000RR.
Right... because apparently starting small is for other people.
I wasn't even worried about the bike. I was wondering which insurance company had completely lost the plot and agreed to insure a learner on that missile. Somehow, he managed it, and I'm still scratching my head.
IBT was entertaining from the very beginning. While everyone else was fighting to master pulling away and stopping on the 125, James was already trying to drag his knee on the 650 doing figure eights. Confidence was never in short supply.
The bike part came naturally. The Rules of the Road... not so much. There were a few moments where road signs and road markings seemed to be speaking a foreign language. Thankfully, after a couple of pretests everything started making sense and the pieces finally fell into place.
Then this morning James decided to make my week a whole lot better. Instead of just passing, he went out and delivered a flawless ZERO FAULT ride. That's not showing off at all... 😏
I honestly couldn't have asked for a better finish to a very long week. James, I'm absolutely bursting with pride. You worked for it, you listened, you improved, and today you absolutely nailed it.
Now go and enjoy that superbike the way it was meant to be enjoyed. Just try not to make every speed limit sign feel personally offended.
Congratulations, James! Miles of smiles, stay safe, and I'll see you on the regular visits on IBT🏍️👏

‼️FIRST ATTEMPT ‼️
Huge congratulations to Michael on smashing his motorcycle test at the first attempt this morning! 🏍️🎉
A few months after IBT, Michael did what every instructor hopes to see. He got himself a bike and actually rode it. Well... sort of. His daily relationship with the motorcycle was basically the N7. Home, work, work, home. I started wondering if he even knew towns existed.
Then came the first pretest. Let's just say Dublin traffic is one thing, but Naas had a few surprises waiting for him😅. The second pretest was definitely an improvement, but I still wasn't fully convinced. In fact, I only promoted Michael to "worthy of a full licence" this morning. Talk about leaving it until the very last minute!😉
Thankfully, Michael clearly enjoys proving his instructor wrong. He went into the test with that trademark smile, handled the scorching heat like a seasoned biker, and absolutely delivered. First attempt, job done, licence earned.😎
It was the best Friday morning news I could have asked for, and I couldn't be prouder. Congratulations, Michael! It has been a pleasure watching your progress. Enjoy the freedom, stay safe out there, and as my neighbour, don't think you'll escape me checking up on your riding! 😎🏍️

‼️FIRST ATTEMPT ‼️
Right then... another one escapes the MBA nest. 😏
Huge congratulations to Marcin, who smashed his motorcycle test today in Naas! 🏍️👏
A couple of months ago this fella turned up for IBT, taking baby steps, with a shiny bike sitting in the shed and insurance already paid before he'd even figured out where second gear was. Confidence? Slightly concerning. 😂
I still remember the first time he sat on the school bike. It took about 30 seconds to realise... "Ah great, another annoying natural." The talent was there from day one. Add passion, a smart head, and the ability to actually listen (rare enough!), and the result was inevitable.
Last week's pre-test lessons confirmed it. Smooth, confident, and riding like he'd been doing it for years. Then today he went out and showed the examiner exactly what I already knew...an absolutely flawless ride. No drama, no panic... almost boring to watch! 😜
I'm ridiculously proud of you, Marcin. Bursting with pride, actually.
The fairy tale of your MBA training might be over, but the real adventure is only beginning. The roads are open, the possibilities are endless, and now it's all on you... so no pressure. 😉
Ride safe, keep that smile, and don't forget us when you're pretending not to wave at learners😉
See you on the road, my Golden Student! 💛🏍️
