Motorcycle Lessons – Victoria
Island Rider is the Vancouver Island Training Program run by Urban Rider Motorcycle School. Urban Rider is an ICBC licensed school with a records office located in Langford and offering an MSA approved MSTP training course in the heart of Victoria. This means that you can take your MSA (Motorcycle Skills Assessment) with Urban Rider and skip the MST at ICBC.
Classroom location is at Camosun College Lansdowne Campus, and training location is conveniently located in the Saanich core near downtown Victoria.
Whether you’re new to riding, or looking to improve your skills, taking Victoria motorcycle lessons with IslandRider is a great way to get started!
WIth Island Rider, you get small group lessons and individual instruction. We have found that our instructors can offer more personalized instruction when teaching smaller groups. We offer private lessons on the street, and small group lessons (maximum 5 riders) in the parking lot.
ICBC Motorcycle Road Test Training
ICBC road test training is available near the Mackenzie ICBC testing center in Saanich. All road test training is 1 to 1 instruction. John has taught over 2,500 riders, ranging from absolute beginners, to expert riders. John specializes in teaching the skills and habits required for safe riding and for passing the ICBC motorcycle road test. Learn More or Book Your Road Test Lesson Now.
For the road test lessons, we follow you on a motorcycle so that we can demonstrate the correct habits, and the entire lesson is recorded on video, so that you can continue to learn and practice on your own after the lesson is over.
MST Training – Motorcycle Skills Test
If you have riding experience from another country, or have been riding dirt bikes for a while and want to challenge the ICBC Motorcycle Skills Test on your own, rather than taking a novice ‘Learn-to-Ride’ course, you can learn the rules of the test and practice on a measured MST course with coaching from an ICBC Certified Motorcycle Skills Assessment Officer.
Complete Courses. We stay with you every step of the way.
For new riders, we offer a complete course that takes you from learning the fundamentals of riding, to becoming a fully licensed motorcycle rider. Many of our students have completed their testing and received an unrestricted license without purchasing their own motorcycle. MSA is included in both our Standard and Complete training packages.
Our courses includes a 7 hour classroom session on the strategies of safe riding, followed by 12 hours of skills development in a closed parking lot (maximum 5 riders). Some courses include traffic and road test lessons, or these can also be booked individually.
For riders who already have a license and want to increase their skills and road safety, we have options for you too.

International Riders
If you have riding experience from another country and need to complete the licensing process here in BC, it isn’t necessary to take a complete course. We offer expert training on the skills needed to pass the MST (Motorcycle Skills Test). All MST training is conducted by ICBC certified Motorcycle Skills Assessment Officers. The MST package includes 1.5 hours of training on an MST course, followed by delivery of a suitable motorcycle to ICBC in Langford for your MST.
ICBC Motorcycle Road Test
The Motorcycle Road Test is about good riding habits. It isn’t enough just to be able to ride a motorcycle. To pass the road test, you must display good habits; stopping before all stop lines, scanning intersections, consistent shoulder checks. We offer a two lesson road test package including a video of your first lesson, and rental of a school bike for your road test.
