Police are investigating a fatal crash involving a single motorcycle rider on a bush track, near the Chain of Lagoons, on Tasmania's East Coast.
Emergency services were notified of the crash on the Leeaberra Track about 4pm on Friday, with a 24-year-old man sustaining critical head injuries after coming off a trail bike. Sadly, the man died at the scene.
Initial investigations indicate the man was riding alone on Friday afternoon when the crash happened near the southern end of the track's intersection with the Thompsons Marshes track.
The man had been camping nearby with a group of people when he went off alone for a ride.
He was found a short time later by a member of the group.
Police said the crash site was in difficult-to-access terrain.
Investigations will continue into the crash and a report will be prepared for the Coroner.
Our thoughts are with the rider's family and loved ones at this time.
