Fantastic experience: Ian's a brilliant instructor. Got me through the bike test and built up lots of good habits. He knows the Ballincollig test route like the back of his hand so you'll get a good idea of whats in store.
Thank you Alex!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Ian and iDrive Motorcycle Training! I did the IBT along with a few pre-test lessons with Ian and found him to be an excellent trainer. He's very knowledgeable and was able to explain everything clearly to me in both the classroom training and practical sessions, with a sense of humour too. I also left each lesson with his handwritten notes and diagrams, which were great for practicing and improving in my own time. And Ian even gave me the lend of a mirror while I was waiting for the new one I'd ordered to be delivered. My confidence came on in leaps and bounds each day, and I ended up passing my driving test on the first attempt with his help!
Thank you Sio!

Many thanks for the review, William
Fantastic experience: I was looking to get back into biking after a break of 20 yrs. I found Ian online and did my IBT with him, I then did some lessons with Ian after applying for my A category license. Ian's a very professional and patient guy, answering all my questions and he really improved my road skills a lot. I passed my test first time, with only a couple of minor mistakes. I thoroughly recommend Ian, he's a great trainer and a great bloke too!
Thanks Andy! Safe riding

Fantastic experience: Took my ibt with Ian over the past 3 weeks can't recommend him more. He is patient and informative. A bit of fun too while you're going through it. He will reassure you throughout the process. Look no further, he will split you out from others you've never ridden a bike before to give you the best chance and take away fear of not being able to keep up with others. I just took my test and used Ian for my pretest lesson too and passed first time. His notes on my skills were invaluable to my first time pass.
Thank you for the review David. I appreciate the kind word.
Fantastic experience: 5 stars for Ian Spillane because he's extremely thorough at his job. Delighted to pass my motorbike test at the 1st attempt and this man played a huge part. All of those important items required in order to pass were explained in great detail by Ian. If you want to get the confidence needed for safe biking, then this is your man.
Many thanks Tim and massive congratulations on your test!
Fantastic experience: It’s been 27years since I was on a motorbike and within 12months of getting back on the road I have my full license that to Ian Spillane at iDrive. Considering you have to have minimum 6months on a provisional and the wait time to get a test I’m delighted Ian was able to give me the confidence to apply for test immediately after 6mths

Fantastic experience: I started riding again last year after many years off motorcycle’s. I signed up for the IBT training with Ian. From the outset I found him very informative and very helpful. It was great to be able to use his bike as I hadn’t one purchased at the time. I contacted Ian months later when I got notified of my test date and again he was very accommodating with him knowledge, time and his bike. I passed first go and this is definitely in part due to the training style, open honest. I would highly recommend Ian for both car and bike lessons. Thank you Ian

Fantastic experience: Ian is an excellent tutor, from the IBT through to refresher training, the experience was excellent in every way.

I am so happy that I chose iDrive and can give them the strongest recommendation as the premier route to applying for your full bike licence.
