A MOTORCYCLIST has died in a crash with a car on a Sunday afternoon ride out in East Yorkshire.
Humberside Police said that the collision happened at about 2pm on Sunday on the A614 Thorpe Road, Howden.
A spokesperson said a silver Triumph Rocket motorbike was travelling from Howden towards Holme on Spalding Moor when it collided with a silver Kia Sorrento which was towing a horse trailer.
They said the rider of the motorbike was pronounced dead at the scene and nobody else suffered any injuries as a result of the collision.
"Our thoughts are with the man’s family and friends as they come to terms with their loss," they said.
"They are being supported by specialist trained officers at this difficult time."
The spokesperson said that officers were appealing for anyone who was driving in the area at the time who might have dashcam footage to get in touch.
"We would also appeal for anyone who saw the collision or the vehicles prior to the collision to call us on our non-emergency number 101 quoting log 313 of 21 August."
