Gary Williamson (2), Deri Thomas (2), Liam Rowe, Dave Hogg, Tim Gallimore, Hamish Forbes-Keith, Gavin Ougan and Danny Randell scored tries, with Hogg converting five.
Bicester replacement Antony Iveson went close in the second half, while lock Ryan Gallacher was sin-binned in the opening period.
Alchester went down to a 49-8 reverse at Thatcham.
The hosts led 13-0 before Tom Miles slotted a penalty for Alchester, for whom Meli Rakacaia also scored a late try.
Louis Kanaar-Brown, James Thorogood, Tim Apperley, Callum Stewart, Joe Leadley, Liam Rowland and Simon Niven went over for Thatcham, with Leadley converting four and slotting two penalties.
