🏍️ GMRW This Week in Washington

September 6–13, 2026

Washington’s motorcycle calendar comes roaring back this week with 26 events on the schedule, including bike nights, memorial rides, poker runs, benefit events, swap meets and one of the bigger multi-day motorcycle gatherings of September.

The week gets rolling Tuesday with bike nights in Sultan and Ellensburg, before Spokane Bike Week kicks off Wednesday at Spokane Speedway and runs through Saturday with racing, riding schools, clinics, a swap meet, bike show, poker run, live music, camping and more.

Friday carries special significance with the Refuse to Forget Ride from Drager’s International Classic Sales in Burlington, followed by evening gatherings in Spokane, Longview and Okanogan.

Saturday is the centerpiece of the week, with rides and events stretching across Washington. There are Patriot Day and 9/11 remembrance rides, memorial rides, poker and dice runs, fundraisers, Bike Day at the Mill, and the evening Glow Ride at Lone Wolf Harley-Davidson in Spokane Valley.

Whether you're looking for a weeknight bike night, a memorial ride, poker run, fundraiser or simply somewhere to point the bike, here's what's happening around Washington this week.
