Fantastic experience: I've done the IBT with Paul. He's a very patient and knowledgeable instructor - teaches with safety in mind first. Helped me build up the confidence on the motorcycle and guided me and the colleagues through the process, correcting mistakes early. He has a great range of protective equipment and bikes If you're looking for getting IBT done, you should definitely consider Paul - he's not only going to teach you how to ride a motorcycle, but he'll teach you how to do it safely!

Fantastic experience: Done my IBT with Paul back in May. I had zero experience with bikes when I started and just a few days ago I passed my category A driving test first time. Couldn’t have done it without Paul’s expertise and patience. I Highly recommend Paul, Thanks for everything!

Wal 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Its quite simple. If you want to complete an IBT course that is structured with safety in mind by a highly qualified and patient instructor, Paul is the man for you. I have just finished an IBT with Paul and I'am now so excited to continue my motorbike journey which will include some lessons and a pre test with Paul.Thanks again and look forward to my next training session in the near future.

Paul O'Kelly 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Paul is a great instructor. I didn’t do my IBT with Paul however a did a number of Pre Test sessions with him in advance of my test. In three sessions he had a big impact on my riding ability and confidence. I passed the test and I also feel much safer on the road. I would have no hesitation in recommending Paul.

Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed my IBT experience at the Jenkins school of motoring . Paul was very clear, patient and thorough with his feedback. Good pacing of progression through the bikes and would highly recommend.

Robert Amadeo 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I am really satisfied with the experience and level of knowledge Paul shared with me. I booked a private session to iron out any bad habits and find areas to improve. The whole session was structured to find out what I would most benefit from, find areas to improve upon, and overall make me a safer rider. Could not recommend enough!

Francis Bowie Espinoza 1 year ago

Negative experience: A waste of time for me. Firstly I had booked a pre test lesson. Once I had it booked, i saw it was going to be raining for that day, so I requested a change of date. This must have offended Paul as when I arrived he barked at me some array of questions as I was getting off my bike, and he proceeded to say most people don’t change , that I should have pushed on blahblahblah . He then proceeds to charge me 100 euro on the spot, so no turning back now. Already setting the tone for the pre test we head off. Now the funny thing here is I had done previously a test ride with Paul to measure my competence on a bike (which he seemed to have no issues with on the day). Now once we start riding on the pretest day, he does the exact same routine as the date I requested him to check to see my competence. He does not teach me anything I need to know for my driving test, he just proceeds to follow me for an hour. Once the hour is done, he spends about 15 minutes berating me. I don’t really mind that, but there’s a better way to do things when someone is paying you your living. Then he wants to sign me up for more lessons. No thank you, I would rather do it with someone who does not take themself so seriously and is willing to teach me and give me my moneys worth. I recommend Airport Driving School, really sound lads.

Fantastic experience: I recently completed my IBT training at Jenkins School of Motoring in Dublin, and it was an outstanding experience. Paul was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and thorough. The lessons were well-structured, and Paul's feedback was invaluable in building my confidence and skills. The training environment was supportive and the bikes were well-maintained. I highly recommend Jenkins School of Motoring for anyone looking to start their motorbike journey.

Ivan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I can't say that learning here is easy — it requires a lot of time and effort. Paul's standards are insanely high, but that pays off well when you're taking the driving test. I'm really happy that I came to this school, highly recommend. Of course I might be a bit biased, as I passed my test today, but anyway, it wouldn't be possible without Paul's help ;)

Bryan Yelverton 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent motoring school, cannot fault it. Paul is friendly patient and very approachable. Bikes and equipment of the highest quality and safety is always paramount. Did IBT and pre test lessons with Paul and passed test first time. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Paul at Jenkins IBT Training delivers exceptional motorcycle training. His thoroughness and expertise ensure that every aspect of the training is covered comprehensively. With clear instructions and tailored sessions, Paul ensured that l felt confident and equipped with the necessary skills to ride safely on the road. If you're looking for top-notch motorcycle training, look no further than Paul Jenkins IBT Training. I cannot recommend him enough.

Dan King 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Paul is a really good trainer, highly qualified and extremely patient. He won't hesitate to correct mistakes early on and if he doesn't think you are ready to move up a category or you are not yet ready to go out onto the road he will get you to repeat a session. The end result is just better trained riders who are more confident and that have taken the time to build up the required skills. I really enjoyed the IBT, it was a great refresher for me having not been on a bike for 30 years. I would highly recommend using Paul Jenkins not only for your IBT but also for pre-tests or advanced riding skills. 4 people passed their tests on the day I was out doing module 5 of the IBT with Paul. Great result! He has a good range of bikes to use during your IBT training.

finn baumann 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I found Paul Jenkins to be increadibly helpful and calm throughout the course of my IBT training. He gave great advice and handled every situation in a constructive and motivational fashion. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to break into the bike world

Daragh Dunn 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Paul is an excellent instructor. Very clear and precise. Great advice not just for the day of the test but for real life driving conditions. Follow his guidance, practice and you will pass on the day. I got my test first time Category A and so did my mate who did Paul's IBT with me. Training bikes are in excellent condition mostly new and well maintained. I can't thank Paul enough. This has been a lifelong goal for me I'm 51.

Conor Mulcahy 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend Paul enough! Did IBT with him and a couple of pre-tests. He is very clear in his instruction, builds your confidence but also drives the critical safety points home. During the whole process he was professional, extremely patient and very informative on all things motorcycle. All round a great experience, very happy to have passed my test first time

Michele Iannacone 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Paul is a fantastic professional teacher. I completed my IBT training in a different school but I didn't feel ready to do my driving test. I completed 3 lessons with Paul and he was able to identify all my errors and correct them. The lessons were very good, over one hour on the road and then back to the School to discuss the progress. His motorbikes are very new and easy to drive. Thanks Paul

Orçun 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have ridden motorcycles for many years in different countries, but you know that just riding a motorcycle is not enough to pass the driving test. I worked with Paul for two days on the pre-test, he observed my driving and explained in detail what to look out for. When I paid attention to his feedback, I immediately noticed its contribution to my driving and I passed the test successfully on my first attempt.

Dazza Stott 2 years ago

Dave Glynn 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Although I spent many years driving Vespa's I hadn't been on one in 19 years and decided to get one for a bit of a pass time, I did the ibt with Paul and I have to say you couldn't get a better or a more knowledgeable instructor in my opinion. I had never driven anything else except vespa's but did the IBT on a 700cc bike. I was nervous to begin with, but through Paul's great instructions and tips etc I feel very confident on a bike like that now. I'd highly recommend Paul for anybody looking to do their IBT, thanks again Paul

Bejoy Babu 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I did my cat A motorcycle training with Paul a couple of weeks ago. I had previous experience in riding motorcycles, but needed to do the IBT to get my Learner Permit valid for riding. My impressions - Paul is a really skilled trainer who has a really keen eye. He observed my riding and provided very important tips to improve my riding - honestly, things that I was never aware of and would've never noticed. He is super friendly and firm, somehow managing to get that balance right. He focuses on riding safe, rather than showing off your skills, which really is what only novice riders do. Experienced riders know their skills, and their limits, and focus on staying safe while enjoying the ride to the fullest. I thought that Paul implemented this philosophy really well while we were out riding. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a trainer.

Jason Carroll 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I literally hadn’t a clue about motorbikes or riding motorbikes but because of work originally, and commuting, it became a necessity. Paul was recommended by a friend of mine who had been with him previously. Paul can come across direct, to the point and serious and at first it was a little intimidating. However, after the 2nd lesson in the yard and before the 3rd on the road you come to learn that it’s for a damn good reason. He reads every situation correctly. He’s always watching even when you sometimes wish he wasn’t. He gives you space and time to breathe and reflect and is never overbearing. By my 4th and last lesson, it was just the 2 of us and I personally hadn’t been with him or been on a bike in 3 months. And to be honest this was the best day. From start to finish I got full attention, Paul was sound and by the end he passed me with flying colours and made me feel 10ft tall. Couldn’t recommend Paul enough.

Vy N. 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I completed my A1 module at another place before I came to Paul for my A2 module. Even though I had been riding for a half year I was still nervous about being on the road and getting on a bigger bike. I am very much a learner still, having never taken the car license or been on a motorbike before last year. However, I really enjoyed my experience with Paul. He was very responsive to messages, and is an excellent instructor. I was positively surprised by how much time we got on the road and in different environments, which really helped me gain more confidence and able to enjoy the riding experience more. He is concise, clear and calm with his feedback, letting you know exactly what areas you need to work on and how. I hope to be back in a few months for my pre-test. I can warmly recommend Paul to anyone wanting to do their IBT or take advanced lessons.

Fantastic experience: First of all would like to thank Paul for getting me being comfortable on the motorbike, I came to Paul at end of May to do by IBT course and never driven a motorbike and in 4 weeks I have completed by IBT course and feel comfortable driving a motorbike. His bikes are all very clean and wonderful machines. You can see he takes pride in his job. Would defo recommended Jenkins school of Motoring to anyone looking to do IBT or pre test.

David M 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Having never ridden a motorcycle on the road before I went to the Jenkins School of Motoring, I was nervous of how it would go. Despite this I feel like I can ride a motorcycle safely and competently after the IBT training. Paul's style of teaching is comprehensive, direct and straight to the point. He will teach you the skills vital to safe motorcycle riding and passing the test. I would highly recommend the Jenkins School of Motoring to anyone wanting to get their IBT.

agnieszka wisinska 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Paul is an amazing teacher. Knowledgeable, experienced and very patient. He makes sure you feel comfortable with your skills, explains all the why's, gives plenty of tips and advice. I couldn't recommend him more, especially for brand new motorbike drivers (like myself). If you are looking for somebody who will really teach you, and not only sign a piece of paper, go to Paul.

Li-Ann Smal 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Paul is a fantastic instructor - clear, thorough, and safe. The lessons are well thought out and not rushed, he gives each individual personalised feedback and works with whatever level they’re at. It’s amazing to see complete beginners be comfortable on the road in a matter of days. The bikes and equipment are well looked after, and the location is perfect for practicing. If you want to become a good rider, go to Paul. He really cares that you’re up to par, and that you feel confident on the road. Also great to see so many other women going for the lessons, I was worried I’d be the only one! Paul was super encouraging and had well-fitting gear for us. Would highly recommend him for IBT lessons, you’re in safe hands with him! Thanks Paul.

Shengqiang Li 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have to say training with Paul is absolutely a joyful and helpful experience! No matter if you have riding experience or not, there is always something to learn from him. Very helpful, and more importantly, very responsible person. Strongly suggest to train with Paul, better be safe than sorry!

Darren Boland 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Went to Paul to do my IBT training, never ridden any type of motorbike previously, and can say I feel very confident in my ability to go out myself after a very well structured, and thorough course. As per other reviews, very detailed, lots and lots of practical work, completing all aspects of bike manoeuvres, strict (in an ensuring of safety way) when most likely accidentally doing something wrong but quick to help clarify and solve any issues, but also very friendly and fun. Highly recommend Jenkins School of Motoring for IBT and I will be sure to come back for pre-test training.

Anika Babel 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Initially went to Paul four years ago for A2 lessons and just returned to complete IBT in the A category. Knowledgeable, fair and very clear instructor. Highly recommend!

Ivan Budylin 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I recently had the pleasure of attending a motorcycle training course with instructor Paul Jenkins, and I cannot recommend him and the school highly enough. Paul is an exceptional professional with extensive experience in both riding and teaching, and he has a firm commitment to maintaining the highest standards of safety on the road. Despite his unwavering focus on safety, Paul also possesses a unique ability to tailor his teaching approach to the needs and skill level of each individual student. He was patient, supportive, and encouraging throughout the course, creating a positive and motivating learning environment. Overall, I found the motorcycle school to be top-notch, with excellent facilities and a well-structured curriculum that covered all the necessary skills and knowledge for safe and confident riding. And with Paul Jenkins at the helm, I have no doubt that anyone who enrolls in this program will receive the best possible instruction and guidance.

Nikolina L 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Paul for your IBT. He is strict but very fair, which I love, because you will be a safe rider once you finish the course. He is super calm, collected and very clear with instructions. He will also tailor the training to suit your needs. I was very nervous person, and needed extra time & a push, Paul was very patient and pushed me(at my own pace) to discover just how much I can do, as long as I want it hard enough. Thanks to Paul I’ve passed my IBT & can ride my new motorbike now. If you are reading this.. Thank you for everything Paul! Nikki

If you're looking to drive safely and avoid bad habits, then Paul is the man for you. His keen eye and attention to detail, as he can catch any mistakes or errors in your driving technique. With his guidance, I was able to correct some bad habits I had developed over time and feel more confident on the road. I highly recommend Paul for anyone looking for a great driving instructor.

Niamh Hogan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've just finished my IBT with Paul Jenkins and I cannot recommend him highly enough. I went from being a complete, and somewhat nervous, beginner at the start of the training to feeling very comfortable and confident on a motorbike at the end. Paul has an excellent manner and way of teaching.He is calm, clear and understanding. My nerves disappeared and I felt in good hands. He continually pushed me outside of my comfort zone, at just the right pace, so that I was making progress without feeling overwhelmed or out of my depth. I will certainly be back to Paul over the next few months in preparation for my full licence.

Mark O'Shea 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Paul is a great instructor, very clear and consistent in his communication of how to perform manoeuvres correctly, and how to stay safe on the road. The compound area is a great place to learn to first sit on a motorbike. His pre-driving test instruction and review is excellent, a great person to learn from.

Fantastic experience: Straight to the point instruction from Paul who is always willing to answer any questions. A Positive and eye-opening experience. After not been on a bike for over 25 years this course has instilled the confidence that was needed to get back on the road on two wheels again.I am sure this course will save lives. Thanks Paul and will be in touch for pre-tests.

Fantastic experience: Did IBT training modules and some lessons and pre-tests with Jenkins School of Motoring. Paul is very technical and has everything you need to get you through your test. Excellent experience and would highly recommend.

ktpquigley 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had three lessons with Paul before passing my A2 test. He was great, definitely wouldn't have passed without him. He's extremely knowledgeable and a very clear communicator, so it's easy to know what the work on points are. Pretest lessons are great where he drives his bike behind you and then gives you marks on what you've done wrong during the pretest lesson. I failed both of my pretests with Paul but thankfully I only got two marks in the test itself because of that! Even though I failed both pretests with him, he was still encouraging regarding my strong points which is important too and gave me the confidence I needed in the test! Would strongly recommend getting lessons with Jenkins School of motoring before your test.

Coline S 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: PASSED MY TEST TODAY! It was my second time attempting it and I started training with Paul shortly after my initial fail. Paul did a baseline assessment and gave me some feedback and advice on my riding. The second time we met we did 2 hours of training which was so beneficial. I met him again yesterday to do a pre-test and I can say that his feedback and advice made all of the difference today and resulted in me passing my test! I am delighted with Paul's lessons, he really takes time to go through everything that can be improved and is available for questions and queries afterwards. Would 100% recommend to anyone riding a motorcycle, whether you have a test coming or not! Thanks again Paul :)

Fantastic experience: I completed my IBT on the 3rd of august. The help that Paul gave me was amazing he was firm but helpful pointed out areas that i can improve on. I can’t rate the experience and the professionalism by Paul high enough. Anyone that is looking to get into the world of motorcycling as a beginner or getting back into bikes like myself should do it and put Paul Jenkins as the only person to contact. Bikes are well looked after and up to date. Thanks again for everything Paul. Update update I just passed my motorcycle test today the 27th September under the guidance from Paul. I can’t thank him enough for being open honest and straightforward with what I needed to hear I don’t think I could have passed without your guidance. Best of luck to all students that go through your school. John

Prajwal A N 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I completed my IBT at Paul's school. Having never ridden a motorcycle before, I was very nervous in the beginning. But Paul's structure of the curriculum made it very easy to pick up the skills. The lessons are broken down into manageable sections, and each class builds upon the previous one. Paul doesn't compromise rider safety, and makes sure you are truly road safe before completing your IBT. He calmly observes your riding, and patiently provides feedback. This helped me understand what mistakes I was making, and rectify them without panicking on the road. He also keeps his lessons at the right difficulty level, so you dont feel overwhelmed but still are challenged and learn. I'm a lot more confident of riding a motorcycle now compared to I was before my IBT with Paul.

Husni Khalaf 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Paul took me from never riding a motorbike before to being able to confidently drive on the roads. He isn't here to rush you through your IBT but to ensure that you have a safe, enjoyable experience while guiding you with utmost care. I would highly recommend Paul to anybody looking to do lessons.

Robert Kenny 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I went through the full IBT with Paul and recently passed my Motorbike driving test. I would recommend Paul as an instructor as he is very thorough during the training which sets you up well for the test. He is very knowledgeable and was a great help with any questions I had. I also did a pre-test with him which I would recommend.

Alan Dignam 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Having undertaken IBT in 2014 I had to re-take very recently and I found Paul's training to be top notch. His instruction is designed to create the safest motorcycling future for his students, to this end he is firm but very fair. I've been riding bikes on and off for 35 years but appreciated the input from Paul, his own ability on a bike is superb. For those that may require them, the school bikes are also excellent.

Fantastic experience: I completed my IBT training with Paul and found him, and the overall process, to be excellent. He rapidly grew my knowledge and confidence of motorcycling, leaving me feeling ready and confident for the next steps on the journey. An excellent instructor, Paul gives clear, precise, instructions, with honest and direct feedback. His pace of training builds knowledge, skill, and confidence very well, and coupled with a great selection of bikes, gear and knowledge I highly recommend Paul's school for IBT training!

Fantastic experience: Completed IBT with Paul - he's been amazing - very experienced, careful, and reasonable. Paul is always fair in his judgement, who's main objective is for you to be safe, and not to kill yourself on the bike. Good sense of humor, no BS, very adequate. He won't be messing around. He is not biased towards anything, but his principles about safety are beyond anyone's expectations - you can be confident on the quality, just as reviews mention.

Fantastic experience: Completed my IBT with Paul brilliant instructor who was strict but very fair. He’s training was focus on how to be a safe rider and knowing what to do. I went from driving a 125cc to driving a 700cc very comfortably, which was something I taught I would never do. Couldn't recommend him enough. Thanks Paul.

Fantastic experience: Did my IBT with Paul who was very professional and a calm instructor. I was completely new to the road, but felt very comfortable with the classes and left feeling very confident. He manages the different levels of motorists very well while putting the student’s safety as a priority, and would definitely recommend doing classes with him.

Fantastic experience: Paul is an excellent trainer. I recently finished IBT with Paul, and went from a complete novice to a confident rider under his direction. His firm but fair approach and strong focus on rider safety is why I would recommend any new rider to do IBT with Paul.

Gillian Hughes 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Paul is a gifted instructor. I can safely say i was an absolute disaster on my first day, but with Paul's knowledge, patience and support I passed my training and have just bought my first motorbike. I couldnt recommend Paul highly enough and I will be back to take an advance training course with him again in the near future.

Fantastic experience: I did my IBT with Paul in the summer, followed by a Pretest and I have just passed my full license last week. Paul is a very patient teacher, and his teaching style is confidence inspiring. The IBT is broken out into a few sessions which makes it much more manageable for new riders like myself. Thanks to Paul for helping me get up to standard for my full license. I would not hesitate to recommend Motorcycle IBT training here at Jenkins school of motoring.

Fantastic experience: I arrived to Paul very unprepared for my full test which was just a week and a half away. With his clear concise tuition (and patience) my approach to riding and road craft improved massively in a very short period of time and I'm happy to say I was able to pass the test first time round. I would not hesitate for a second in recommending Paul to anyone. You wont find better.

Fantastic experience: Just completed my IBT with Paul and the whole experience was brilliant. Went from a total beginner to feeling confident to ride in both city traffic and rural roads. Bikes and equipment are of a very high standard. The training is really hands on and Paul is concise, firm and calm in his training making you feel safe and confident. Would definitely recommend!

Jennifer Cullen 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have just completed my IBT with Paul Jenkins and I can’t praise the training highly enough. From being a complete beginner at the beginning of the week to being comfortable and feeling safe on a motorbike in just three days is no mean feat! He assesses where you are, and gives feedback and guidance that is right at your level, while also managing the various levels of riders completing the training. The training ensures you are a safe rider, it’s not just a case of signing you off with a certificate. It’s thorough, clear and confidence inspiring. I highly recommend Paul for IBT training and I’ll definitely be back for my pre-test lessons!

Fantastic experience: Paul is a great instructor with a lot of experience. He is professional, clear and very informative. All motorcycle are new and fit for purpose. We spent 11 hours on the bikes (2 half days) with some checkpoints on the way where Paul provided feedback and useful inputs. Highly recommended.

Mirek Wieclawski 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Updated(22/07/2022): I have already given 5 stars for my IBT training with Paul, but I cannot miss the opportunity of giving feedback on rest of my journey to full license. After finishing my IBT I was practicing on my 250cc Hornet, so if I was going for the exam on that bike it would qualify me only for A2 license. Since I was looking to obtain full A(no limitations)license I had to do the exam on a bigger bike and I wasn't ready yet to purchase one. Paul offers the service where you can hire suitable bike for your exam with no hassle and for very good price(I did the homework already on that). I have also asked for a pre-test and cannot be happier with it. During my pre test Paul pointed our good few flaws in my riding, some due to the fact of riding more powerful bike than I used to and some most likely due to me picking up some bad habits during my Learner adventure. I have booked additional hours for polishing these and Paul was very flexible accommodating short notice lessons. It ended up me passing my official exam on first attempt with very satisfying score. I will say it again, Paul is very straight and fair instructor having in mind not only me successfully passing exam, but mostly being safe on the road to be able to enjoy riding for years. Cannot recommend Paul enough! ------------------------IBT Training below------------ Can’t praise Jenkins School of Motoring highly enough. Paul Jenkins is a real professional with exceptional approach to teaching. On every step he proves that rider’s safety, immediate one during the course, but mostly long term, after finishing the course and riding on your own is the highest priority for him. He is always spot on correcting any mistakes and giving practical advice with explanation how to do that better. I feel I have actually learned skills not only passed IBT training! I do highly recommend Paul if you take your training seriously and you want to be confident and safe on the road. As someone said he’s “firm but fair”. I second that!

Fantastic experience: I successfully passed my test this morning on my first attempt. Paul proved to be an outstanding instructor, providing clear guidance and a well-structured approach. I had previously taken all my lessons with Paul 18 months ago, and returning for a pre-test session last week was incredibly valuable. It helped me identify aspects I had overlooked in my daily rides and undoubtedly played a pivotal role in my success today. I wholeheartedly recommend Paul for all training and pre-test needs.

Fantastic experience: Great instructor. Throughout each and every module Paul genuinely wanted me to be as safe and as educated as possible before going out on the road. His instructions were honest, humbling and informative and contributed to my learning in a significant and meaningful way. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for an IBT instructor who will do his job and do it well and educate and instruct you to be a safe rider.

Fantastic experience: Paul is a brilliant instructor who has a strict but very fair approach to IBT training and your safety. He has a wealth of experience that he passed on to me and does not rush any aspect of the training. He has a great selection of new & clean bikes available too, which I used for my Category A test. His priority is to train you as a competent rider and not just push you through the training as fast as possible. He knows every detail of passing the test but teaches this through the lens of safe riding. I'd highly recommend Paul to anyone looking complete their IBT and I'll definitely be back for some refresher lessons in the future.

Fantastic experience: I recently done my IBT with Paul Jenkins on his school of motoring. Paul communicates very well with his students even with non native English speakers like me. I recommend his training to everyone who needs learn ride motorbikes.

Eoin Dolan 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: "I didn't even have my own bike and I passed my test, first time around, with Jenkins" If you want an expert who doesn't sugar coat it for you and actually helps you pass your driving test, I cannot recommend Jenkins enough. From the get-go, you are provided with effective, clear and understandable instruction and learning while on and off the bike. I went to Jenkins with ZERO experience on a bike and walked away with a Full License and ZERO marks on the test. In total I had about 10 lessons and 2 pretests with Paul, between Sep 20 and Jun 21. With each lesson, I got off the saddle feeling more confident and even more eager to get back on. A huge thanks to Paul. Drive Safe, Folks

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Paul for anyone looking to learn or even experienced riders moving up a category. Completed my IBT today and I left feeling more knowledgeable than what I was expecting. Great teacher with honest feedback, which is rare! - Thanks Paul!

David 4 years ago

Positive experience: Paul has a fantastic way of teaching that is necessarily strict but fair as he truly cares about rider safety and what happens to riders after they leave his IBT. The only reason I gave 4/5 stars is because it took me a full month to complete the training due to how he runs things, whereas it typically only takes 2 consecutive days to complete the IBT. Overall a brilliant setup and I am glad I chose to go to Paul. Thanks Paul and all the best!

LUKE MAGUIRE 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Paul will definitely be up for a casual conversation during the breaks that you get throughout your IBT lessons. Anything he has to tell you is for your own safety and to make sure that you can become a safe motorcyclist on the road. Communication is top-class and has the time to facilitate people who take information in at a slow pace. Top-quality bikes and top-quality PPE and knows exactly what to say to new people taking to the motorbike for the first time. Look no further than this highly recommended IBT instructor. Definitely been a pleasure to be taught by him. Thanks Paul.

Kevin O'Connor 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you want to learn from the best, Paul is an expert and a phenomenal instructor. He tells you exactly what you need to improve when riding with a no BS assesment. I was a complete beginner on the roads and dont have a full car licence so learing to ride a bike was a bit of a babtism of fire..After completing IBT and a couple of pre tests I passed my my test today first go with only two grade 2's. Thank you Paul

Fantastic experience: Paul was great to train under and I'm confident that I'm riding safely on the roads. He answers any questions you have big or small. He was also happy to offer advice in relation to attaining insurance also. One other thing that I should state is that he is a Rospa Gold instructor (elite rider safety). This is what I wanted whatever trainer I had to have. If you're unaware of Rospa, look it up. You'll know you're in good hands. Cheers Paul
