A 61-year-old motorcyclist is in a “serious but stable” condition in hospital after he was involved in a collision on the A169 yesterday. The collision occurred on Saltergate Bank, near the Saltersgate Inn, at around 1.30pm on the road that runs between Pickering and Whitby.
The male rider was heading towards his home town of Whitby when his black and blue AJS motorcycle came off the road to the nearside. The man’s wife, aged 59, was following on another motorcycle, but she was not involved in the collision.
