Mon, 05 Mar 2012

An off-road motorcyclist is being treated for what fire crews have described as serious injuries following a crash near to the Clypse reservoir.

Fire officers were called out to help an ambulance crew on the Honey Hill track yesterday afternoon.

The rider appeared to have a possible broken arm, ribs, collarbone and back injuries.

Paramedics were able to stabilise the biker at the scene, before fire crews used their all-terrain vehicle to transport the rider to an ambulance, which was waiting on the road.

The operation took around an hour.
