A POPULAR Romsey pub is to welcome motorcyclists for the town's first ever 'bike night'.

The Comrades Club, off The Harrage, is set to host a local Bike Night for the first time tonight, bringing together bikes, bites and beverages.

The event is due to start at 6pm and finish at 9pm.

It will mark the beginning of a weekly meet, due to be held until Monday, October 8.

The venue is offering soft drinks, beers and meals of chicken nuggets or sausage and chips at discounted Comrades Club member prices for all non-members who attend.

The meet is to encourage bikers to make the most of the remaining summertime.

Southampton already has its own popular Bike Night.

The event, held each week at the Bargate, often brings hundreds of bikers together in the city centre.

The group also hold special charity events, including a 'Toy Run' and a food fundraiser in aid of Southampton City Mission.
