A rider is being treated at Noble’s Hospital following an accident at Brandywell this afteroon.
The rider’s injuries are still being assessed but are not thought to be life-threatening.
The Mountain Road was closed from the Hairpin to the Creg ny Baa to allow emergency services to deal with the incident, which involved a UK-registered Suzuki. It has since reopened.
Meanwhile, a man will appear in court tomorrow after a motorbike overtook the Roads Open Car at the 33rd Milestone last night.
