Why has Bike Night become such a key event for riders in Gloucestershire?
After hosting two hugely successful Bike Nights in 2024 and 2025, we’re excited to begin preparations for Roadrunner Motorcycles’ 2026 event. Taking place on Friday 7th August from 6pm, it’s already shaping up to be one of Stroud’s most anticipated gatherings for local riders, families, and the wider biking community.
What new additions can visitors expect for 2026? Riders often ask: Will there be food, entertainment, and charity involvement?
Once again, we’re bringing our own Roadrunner burger van serving tasty hot food throughout the evening. Chez’s Ices Deserts will also join us with cold treats. The event again raises money for the Great Western Air Ambulance Charity, supporting vital emergency services across Gloucestershire.
Who else will be at the event? Many people search for: Do bike nights include traders and suppliers?
Yes — 2026 will feature a range of traders, suppliers, and reps showcasing products, gear, and accessories. We’ll also host a charity raffle with prizes donated by supporters, helping raise even more funds for the Great Western Air Ambulance Charity and strengthening our community impact.
What entertainment will be available on the night? A common question is: Is there live music at Roadrunner’s Bike Night?
We’re pleased to confirm that Rich Dickinson’s Driving Force will return to perform live. Their high‑energy set has become a highlight of previous events, creating the perfect soundtrack for an evening of bikes, food, community atmosphere, and summer energy in the heart of Stroud.
How does Make your Mark contribute to the evening? Riders ask: What is Mark and the biker passport?
Their well‑known biker passport encourages riders to visit events and locations throughout the season, helping build community connections and supporting mental health awareness. Their involvement adds depth and purpose to the night, reinforcing the values that sit at the heart of our biking community.
Which race teams will be attending? Visitors often search for: Will Roadrunner’s sponsored teams be there?
Yes — both NGRRC Team Hardiman Racing and Team Ratcliff Racing will join us for the evening. Their presence gives visitors the chance to meet the riders, see their machines up close, and learn more about the racing season ahead, adding excitement and inspiration to the event.
What happens at a Roadrunner Bike Night?
Expect a relaxed, family‑friendly evening with a wide mix of motorcycles on display, from commuters to customs and classics. It’s a chance to meet other riders, browse trader stalls, enjoy live music, grab food or ice cream, chat with race teams, and support important local charities — all in one welcoming space.
What does Roadrunner Motorcycles offer at our premises?
At our Fromeside Industrial Estate workshop, we provide motorcycle MOT testing, servicing, repairs, tyre supply and fitting, parts, accessories, and a selection of used motorcycles. Our experienced team supports riders of all levels, ensuring their bikes stay safe, reliable, and ready for the road throughout the year.
