The Greenman MCC and Millards event raises money for local charities through a relaxing social evening by the cafe, which opens especially for the occasion.
Although a couple had to be cancelled due to lockdown, all islanders are invited to join in on Wednesday 8 July from 7-9pm.
On each of the nights, the organisers choose a different charity to support and all the money raised that night is given directly to the it.
Jason Rostron, from Greenman MCC, said there are normally a few hundred bikes down on a good night.
Over the past seven years the event has raised more than £14,000.
‘One very wet night we only raised £275, but had our best when Allen Millyard came over on his Dodge Viper bike and we managed to raise £1,550 in just two hours, which was absolutely incredible.
‘That time also happened to be in honour of my late father as we were raising money for the Guernsey Alzheimer’s Society.
‘It was a truly humbling experience and this year we have been hanging on desperately hoping we could beat Covid-19 and return to our best.’
Three bike nights are lined up, the first being for the GSCPA, then for Headway on 12 August and finally on 9 September for the Priaulx Premature Baby Foundation.
At the September bike night, a raffle will be drawn with the chance to win a Royal Enfield Himalayan motorcycle which the sponsor, Millards, donated.
Tickets are available from Millards and are £10 each.
There are 500 tickets available, making a total profit of £2,500 if they can sell them all.
This money will be split between five local charities – the RNLI, the GSPCA, Headway, the Priaulx Premature Baby Foundation and the Men’s Shed.
Mr Rostron said the group was proud to run these events and support local charities with the generous donations from the island’s biker community.
‘GBG also help us raise money as Dave Prevel sells badges and items through GBG and all proceeds are kindly donated each year to help us help others.
‘It really is a team effort. I’m very humbled as the host and never envisaged it would be so successful.
‘We get such great feedback from everyone who comes down and enjoys the evenings.’
