Regionalis Bikers FMI Lazio (Regional Motorcycle Rally)

A regional rally in the heart of Sabina

The Regionalis Bikers FMI Lazio is an annual event that gathers motorcycle clubs from Lazio affiliated with the Bikers section of the Italian Motorcycle Federation (FMI). It is not a race, but a celebration on two wheels: a weekend where hundreds of motorcyclists converge from across the region to share roads, music, and meals. In 2026, the organization was entrusted to the Black Lions Motoclub, a group active since 2006, which hosted the event in the town of Frasso Sabino, in the province of Rieti, Lazio.

Frasso Sabino, a village overlooking the Farfa Valley

Frasso Sabino is a small town in the Rieti Sabina, with a few hundred inhabitants nestled among olive groves and holm oak forests, famous for the astronomical observatory located just outside the village. The territory is defined by gentle curves, panoramic hairpin bends, and medieval villages just a few kilometers apart: an ideal playground for those who love to ride without haste. Choosing this location for the regional rally allowed participants to discover a corner of Lazio often overlooked by major tourist flows, halfway between Rome and Rieti.

Two days of non-stop festivities

The rally format alternates between social gatherings and spectacular events, with a rhythm that heats up in the afternoon and continues until 1:00 AM. The program typically includes:

• Opening party and welcome for bikers in the early afternoon, with the open bar;
• Stunt and engine shows by specialized clubs, with motorcycles and cars on display in the exhibition area;
• Scenic rides through the Sabina villages, an opportunity to combine the pleasure of riding with local exploration;
• Aperidisco and evening DJ sets, featuring hits from the seventies, eighties, and nineties;
• Live concerts with dance bands, and fire shows to close the evening;
• Food stalls with traditional cuisine and draft beer, open throughout the event.

The spirit of the FMI Bikers

The Bikers section of the Italian Motorcycle Federation brings together clubs that prioritize motorcycle tourism and social life over competition. Regional rallies like the one in Lazio are stages of a national circuit that awards points to participating clubs based on the number of members present and the distance traveled: hence the tradition of arriving in groups, wearing the colors and carrying the banners of one's club. Over the years, a close-knit community has formed around this ritual, where road safety and solidarity carry as much weight as the passion for two wheels.

An event open to everyone

Admission to the rally is free, and the event is open to non-motorcyclists as well: families, curious visitors, and residents can find music, shows, and food stands throughout the weekend. A free camping area is available for those who wish to stay overnight, a solution highly appreciated by those arriving from the more distant provinces of Lazio. The atmosphere is that of a typical village festival, with the roar of engines providing the soundtrack and outdoor tables occupied until late at night.

When to go

The event usually takes place in June, when the temperatures in Sabina are still pleasant and the evenings are long. Those arriving early can take advantage of the day for a tour of the surroundings: the Abbey of Farfa, Casperia, Roccantica, and Poggio Mirteto are all reachable in less than half an hour.
