weekend rider

Occasional recreational motorcyclist

A weekend rider is someone who engages in a recreational activity—typically motorcycling, cycling, or horseback riding—only on weekends rather than as a regular commuter or professional.

The term often carries a hint of condescension from more dedicated enthusiasts, implying casual or fair-weather participation: He's just a weekend rider who puts maybe 500 miles a year on that bike.
