The court heard from the prosecutor that the 57-year-old had been caught out riding an Aprilia Atlantic 125 on the A40 at Ross-on-Wye without a licence on April 16.
He had also been riding the bike without a valid insurance policy in place on the same date, the court heard.

He was also ordered to pay prosecution costs of £90 and a £352 victim surcharge, which is used to help fund services supporting victims of crime.
