A MOTORCYCLIST was airlifted to hospital with serious injuries after crashing into a wall. 

The orange Superbyke motorcycle was travelling south on Main Street, in Dundonald, South Ayrshire, when it turned into Tarbolton Road and collided with a wall around 11.30am on Saturday. 

The 35-year-old male motorcyclist was taken via air ambulance to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow where he remains. 

Police have made an appeal for information about the crash. 

Irvine Road Policing Unit’s Sergeant Stewart Taylor 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 inquiries.”

The road was shut for around five and a half hours after the crash while investigations were carried out. 

Anyone with information is urged to contact Police Scotland via 101, quoting incident number 1463 of Saturday August 27 2022.
