Radikal Bikers is an abstract racing game set in the Mediterranean, in which players take on the role of a pizza delivery driver. The goal is to deliver pizza before the rival delivery driver and before the timer expires. Each player-character rides an Italian scooter as they navigate through heavy traffic and tight, twisting roads.

The game has three selectable locations and difficulty levels, appropriately represented as increasingly spicy pizzas: Margherita (easy, set in Milan), Capricciosa (medium, set in Rome) and Diabola (hard, set in Naples). Each location features four races and if players beat four races in a level, they will progress to the next stage for free. The urban setting allows for interaction with many different elements: cars, vans, windows, fences, people, etc.

Each circuit has many shortcuts and alternate routes, and to further aid the players, numerous power-ups can be picked up:
• Power Kick - Indicated by the bomb, allows players to blow up cars by kicking them for bonus points.
• Turbo - Indicated by the letter T, gives a temporary speed boost (incompatible with Power Kick).
• Extra Points - Indicated by the $, awards a bonus of 3000 points.
• Extra Time - Indicated by an hourglass, award 1 extra second of time.
• The Joker - Indicated by the ? gives a random power-up or extra points.

The four selectable player-characters are:
• Carlo - From "Paolo's Maniak Pizza".
• Gino - From "Frenzy Mario Pizza".
• Nina - From "Paolo's Maniak Pizza".
• Sofia - From "Frenzy Mario Pizza".
