DM Rider Training is a trusted, NZTA-approved motorcycle training provider offering rider education across Auckland, Waikato, and the Bay of Plenty.
With a strong focus on safety, skill-building, and rider confidence, we've helped many new and experienced motorcyclists progress through their licence journey, from the Basic Handling Skills Test (BHST), CBTA Restricted (6R) and CBTA Full (6F).
The team has been actively involved in New Zealand’s motorcycle training industry since 2016. In 2020, DM Rider Training was established by Dugal Matheson as an independent provider with a clear mission: to offer practical, rider-focused coaching that’s both accessible and highly effective. Dugal brings years of hands-on experience and a genuine passion for helping riders succeed, no matter if you're just starting out or want to fine-tune advanced road skills.

Tailored training for every rider
At DM Rider Training, we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Our courses are tailored to each rider’s current skill level, goals and comfort zone, while still meeting the standards required for NZTA certification. This flexible training style, combined with clear communication and supportive coaching, has made us a preferred choice across the upper North Island.
Most of our students come back for multiple stages of their training. It’s a reflection of the trust we’ve earned through consistent results and personal attention. We’re proud to offer a professional yet personal experience, where every rider feels prepared, informed, and confident on the road.
