Monthly Activities
Fun Runs are held on the 2nd Saturday or Sunday of the month. The pace is relaxed, allowing new riders to observe and practice advanced riding without feeling under pressure. Guests are welcome, many of whom go on to join the club. (just Contact us in advance).
Training Runs are open to members only and held on the 4th Saturday or Sunday of the month. The focus is typically on one or more areas of advanced riding, where riders put skills into action on the road. A Group Tutor will lead the run and provide coaching to the group during the day.

What’s my investment? The annual membership sub for 2024 is €35, which goes to cover club expenses, insurance, and our affiliation to RoSPA. More importantly, an investment in advanced riding skills could save your life!
What is the RoSPA advanced rider qualification?
The RoSPA advanced motorcycle certificate lasts three years and is the highest level civilian motorcycle qualification available in Ireland. Awards are graded Bronze, Silver or Gold. The test lasts around 45 to 60 minutes, and the RoSPA examiner will be an advanced motorcycle instructor (many are retired Garda motorcycle instructors).
Why would I want to take the advanced motorcycle test?
Whilst a RoSPA qualification can earn you a discount on your insurance, advanced riders are more confident, smoother, safer, and less likely to be involved in a crash. This is important to riders who take their own safety and wellbeing seriously, as well as being concerned for the impact of their riding on other road users and the environment. You don’t have to take this test to be a member see here for more information.
