Rider Coach

Fantastic experience: Professional and experienced trainer. We all meet people for a reason in life. I've learned something new. Thank you Sensei!

Fantastic experience: ROSPA GOLD success with Aidan. I highly recommend Aidan as a coach. Choosing Aidan allows you access his impressive experience (in excess of over one-million kilometres on two wheels) and his expert knowledge of roadcraft. Leveraging his experience will allow you to bypass the errors typical of both novice and returning riders, in a style that is direct and mature. His expert knowledge and professionalism challenges advanced riders to access the fluent skills needed for ROSPA Gold. And will accelerate learner permit holders to pass the RSA test in the minimum time (Aidan helped me pass my full A driving test within 6 months of getting my learner permit and IBT!). The journey doesn't stop at the test...no matter what standard of test a rider is facing. Investing in myself, and my safety is a priority for me and those close to me. Keeping my skills sharp and removing creeping complacency is something that Aidan has really helped me with and I thank him as he continues this journey with me. Massive thank you to Aidan, the challenge now is to make sure I retain the ROSPA Gold licence - keep it safe IPSGA.

Fantastic experience: I had the privilege of learning under the guidance of Aidan Sheehan for the past two years, and I can confidently say he is an incredible motorcycle instructor. Coming from Brazil with a previous license but five years without riding, I needed to essentially relearn everything. Aidan not only provided invaluable safety advice but demonstrated an uncanny ability to anticipate my every move, even while riding in front of me. Aidan's attention to detail and personalized approach set him apart. From the initial meeting, he took the time to understand my background, goals, and needs. This laid the foundation for a meticulously crafted plan to obtain my final permit. Aidan's support extended beyond the training sessions; he facilitated discounts for my insurance, took me to stores to explore the best protective gear, and even generously lent me his motorcycle for initial classes until I purchased my own. What stood out most was Aidan's genuine care for his students. He created a comfortable and open environment for discussion, ensuring that the learning experience was not only educational but also enjoyable. His ability to read minds seemed almost supernatural, making every session efficient and tailored to my progress. In summary, Aidan Sheehan is more than an instructor; he's a mentor who goes above and beyond to ensure his students are not just proficient riders but also well-equipped for the road ahead. I wholeheartedly recommend Aidan to anyone seeking a top-notch motorcycle instructor. Thanks to him, I am not just licensed; I am confident and safe on the road.

Fantastic experience: Aido came recommended to me by the guys in Joe Duffy Motorrad. He's an exceptional instructor (speaking with experience of other instructors). He's a great communicator both while off the bikes and while out on the road. He explains things really well but what he is exceptional at is putting a certain degree of mental pressure on to get things right but not so much that it makes you stressed and prone to making faults under pressure. And if you do make a £uck up, he'll likely say "it's cool man" which I think is hugely important to keep nerves at bay and to stay focused. I passed after having done 3 lessons with Aido. I would however strongly advise riding Ballycoolin/Mulhuddart area for hours in between lessons as it gives you a chance to learn the test route but more importantly absorb and practice what Aido covered in the previous lesson. There's def a moment where it all clicks and I put that down to Aido's style of teaching.

Fantastic experience: I think Aidan is one of the best instructors in Ireland. You will get knowledge and experience, you will feel safe and comfortable by every day riding. If you need instructor then he is the man. Aidan - thank you very much! You the best!

Fantastic experience: Great experience from start to finish with Aidan. Super knowledgeable with clear instruction and practical advice. Made the journey from learner to full license a pleasure. Thanks Aidan, much appreciated !

Fantastic experience: 10/10 i wouldn't go anywhere else. Aidan knows his stuff. I'll be going back shortly for pre test lessons. Cheers Aidan

Fantastic experience: A true coach! He showed me what's real passion to the bikes is all about. He won't teach you basics, he will teach you what you need to know to begin the adventure as a rider!

Fantastic experience: Cheers Aidan, great guy and instructor. Had to do a second IBT because of expiry. Bloody covid. Simply would not have gone anywhere else. Very relatable and a world of knowledge. And most importantly fun. Cheers again Aid, you the man:-) Could not recommend more. Ian

Fantastic experience: The best Riding school by far, if you looking to get your IBT done Aidan is the man with great knowledge in teaching new or advanced riders. The price for the course is the most reasonable around and you get a lot more then what you paid for. I have to say I looked into a lot of places that do this and I’m absolutely delighted I chose Rider Coach. The course itself was great fun. If you do not own your own safety gear it’s no problem Rider Coach provides very high quality gear and very well maintained bikes. The most important part of this school is that you actually have fun while learning. Aidan is a very positive teacher with great patience.

Fantastic experience: An absolute must go if you want to get your feet off the ground, and on to a motrobike pedal. Great instructor, and person. Today was definitely a highlight.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Aidan as a rider coach. Cool, calm and collected. Day one, he provided me with a bike and safety gear. I brought my helmet and gloves. He advised me on any gear I was thinking of getting. I did the full IBT training and pre-test with him and I PASSED MY TEST YESTERDAY! Respect to Aidan. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Absolute Gentleman and a top quality instructor. I've just completed my IBT's with Aidan after 20 years off a bike. His method of coaching is brilliant and puts you at ease straight away. I would highly recommend Aidan and ridercoach.ie to anyone looking to do IBT's or advanced bike training. Thanks Aidan for sharing some of your knowledge with me I will definitely be back with you for my pretests and future training. 5 stars isn't enough . Paul

Fantastic experience: Simply the best instructor in Ireland. You are very lucky that you have found my review, just stop looking for instructor from now on, call Aidan. You will get knowledge and experience, you will feel comfortable and safe by every day riding and you will definitely pass the driving test. Aidan - thank you very much! You the best!

Fantastic experience: Aidan is a great coach! He helped me get from literally zero experience with the bikes to full cat. A licence, passing the test first time. If you want serious training and you're willing to learn proper riding techniques, Aidan is the man. Keep up the good work!

Fantastic experience: Very knowledgeable and approachable guy. Aidan can be a bit pricey, but what price do you put on your safety? Totally worth it in my opinion. For the +2 years I've been riding I've known what to do in every (scary) situation I've faced

Fantastic experience: Excellent instructor

Fantastic experience: I passed my A1 license today and I have to thank Aidan for his patients, clear instructions, encouragement and support in getting this done. I would highly recommend Aidan to anyone who is starting their rider career or coming back to motorbikes.

Fantastic experience: Great crack and a very skillful coach. Very sincere and very good at showing you, your weak point when it comes to riding. Can’t recommend Aido enough!

Fantastic experience: I did pre-test with Aidan and passed the test.

Fantastic experience: Aidan is tremendously experienced, very straightforward in explaining details, and a great fun to learn from and ride with. He doesn't hold back any secrets, very open and highly efficient in teaching the safe and proper way to handle the bike and yourself. For anyone looking to get IBT or additional training - don't hesitate, book a course or session. Bring the right attitude with you and you'll learn a lot.
