Are there any roles within the army where there are opportunities to ride motorcycles in an operational capacity?

Good morning

unfortunately the days of the dispatch rider in the army are over. There are however Quads in service which are often used in the infantry to transport ammunition and supplies around the battlefield.

Hope this helps.

There are opportunities to ride bikes in other areas.

My regiment has a guy who does Motor cross, i think for the Army Team. We also ran an expedition to the west coast of Africa were a team of 10 rode bikes along the coast over 10 days.
