I mean horses are still faster. Now on motorcycles, That would be badass.
They're faster on the charge, but bikes are incredibly efficient. Over a day a person on a bike will travel a lot further than one on horseback.
So better idea, rather than knights on bikes... bike mounted dragoons!
Better yet, bike-mounted anti-tank units
I was expecting the Vespa 150 TAP with a recoilless gun, but this is even better.
There is also Bike mounted electronic countermeasure units.
Card games on motorcycles?!
Robert Evens of behind the bastards fame did a podcast all about the movie Knightriders which is about knights on motorcycles. He was quite taken with it and it sounded pretty ok.
The book is a satire.
