Gareth Berry, aged 43, is accused of causing the death of Carl Harkins by careless driving.
Mr Harkins died after a collision between his motorbike and a black Mercedes E Class on the A442 at Waters Upton, near Shawbury on July 16 last year.
Berry, of Millers Row, Longden Upon Tern, Telford, pleaded not guilty to the charge at Shrewsbury Crown Court.
A trial date was set for July 28 next year. It is expected to last for five days.
Recorder Julian Taylor told Berry: "The trial is a long way off but you must stay in contact with your solicitors."
He granted bail to Berry.
Members of Mr Harkins's family were in court to listen to proceedings.
