Police said the rider accelerated past other vehicles quickly and collided with a vehicle travelling in the same direction just west of the Thomas Road intersection.

The rider suffered serious injuries.

Police are investigating the incident and have asked people who were on the road at the time or who witnessed the crash to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
