motorcycle chase
High-speed bike pursuit
A motorcycle chase is a high-speed pursuit involving at least one motorcycle, typically between law enforcement and a fleeing suspect, or between opposing parties in conflict.
The term appears frequently in action films, where motorcycle chases offer dramatic weaving through traffic and narrow spaces that cars can't navigate: The movie's motorcycle chase through the city streets was the highlight.
In news contexts, it usually refers to police pursuits: The motorcycle chase ended when the suspect crashed into a guardrail.
