Sadly, a man in his 60s from Ulverstone has died at the scene of a single motorcycle crash at Union Bridge Road, near Paradise.

The man was riding as part of a group on the weekend and was last seen by his acquaintances about 3:30pm on Sunday.

Concerns were raised on Monday after the man failed to arrive at their destination.

Members of the group drove the previous day’s route, and sadly located the man and his motorbike last night down a small bank off the side of the road .

Police are investigating and a report will be prepared for the Coroner. 

Our thoughts and condolences are with the family and loved ones of the man.
