Battlebikes is a supplement published by Games Workshop in 1984 for the near-future post-apocalyptic combat board game Battlecars. It was the first expansion for that game and was designed by Gary Chalk, Albie Fiore and Ian Livingstone. It adds combat motorcycles, and its components are cards and counters for six motorcycles, weapon counters and a rulebook with the new motorcycle combat rules. The rulebook also includes two scenarios: in Raid on Taccoville, seven townspeople try to stop three bikers from robbing a bank, and in Smokey Joe's Cafe, four bikers take on two combat cars. Reviewers were lukewarm. Chris Baylis in Imagine thought the boxed set had little to offer, while Ian Waddelow in White Dwarf issue 56 welcomed the armoured motorcycles, praised the scenarios and gave it 7 out of 10.
