My first lesson was last weekend of Sept & had my Mod2 test passed on 20th December although i wasnt in a huge rush so im sure it could be done quicker.
I used Paul Hunter in Downpatrick recommended by @aaron_dp & also by afew friends.
Travelled down from Lisburn for lessons but i would 100% recommend him, it was always 1 to 1 lessons and a real sound bloke to top it off.
Get your test done as there is nothing like it!
Good luck!

I used Simon Beckett of North Down Riding Training based in Balloo in Bangor. Always one-to-one lessons and very good, albeit it's not like I can compare him to anyone else!

Anyone's kids got on the road lately? My nephew turns 16 in a few weeks and we have rebuilt his Yamaha Jog 50 since Christmas and he now needs to see about getting on the road. At 16 do they still need their theory and CBT like you would for a 125? If they have to do both does that then cover them at 17 and into a 125, or does he have to do another test next year to get him on a 125?
All totally different since I did my test over 20 years ago LOL

No theory to do then, or does he have to do that too?

No theory needed for CBT, only when you're going for a full test.
Booked my theory tonight, finally pulling the finger out.

Anyone done their practical test in Mallusk? what way does it work when booking the practical test - I thought there was two parts, the booking doesn't seem to differentiate.

RMS Regular
Thanks. booking system just gives a date for the practical, doesn't differentiate between manoeuvres vs on-road test. I assume manoeuvres comes first but there's zero clarity about whether they are on the same day or I need to book the on-road test after completing successfully completing manoeuvres.

They'll be 2 seperate dates.Do your off road first then book the on road test.

You can only complete the on road portion of the test upon completion of the off road part. Whoever you’re doing your lessons with should be able to advise or even schedule it for you, as most instructors seem to do for learners.

Mallusk has one day with 2 slots available, all other centres say 'nothing available'. hmmm....

If I remember correctly you will only see the off-road available tests until you pass it. Mallusk is the only place I know of that does the off-road, I travelled up there from Newtownards when I was learning with Ians, but they booked all my tests for me.
I did mine at Downpatrick but that was nearly 14 years ago

Oh I’m sure there are others, you’re the first person I know of that’s done it somewhere other than MalluskI did mine at Downpatrick but that was nearly 14 years ago
