Motorcyclist airlifted to hospital after crashing into wall in Ayrshire

A motorcyclist has been left with serious injuries after crashing into a wall in Ayrshire at the weekend.

The 35-year-old was airlifted to hospital following the crash on Saturday at around 11.30am.

Police say the orange Superbyke motorcycle was travelling south on Main Street, Dundonald, before turning into Tarbolton Road where the driver collided with a wall.

Officers say the man was taken by helimed to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow where he remains. The motorcyclist sustained serious injuries as a result of the crash.

The road was closed for around five-and-a-half hours whilst collision investigations were carried out.

Sergeant Stewart Taylor, of the Irvine road policing unit, said: “A man has sustained serious injuries as a result of this collision, so it is important that we establish exactly how the crash occurred.

“We are appealing to anyone who may have witnessed the crash or was in the area at the time of the collision to get in touch.

"I would also ask anyone with dash cam devices to check their footage as it may hold images which could prove significant to our enquiries.”

Anyone with any information should contact Police Scotland via 101, quoting incident number 1463 of Saturday, August 27.
