A man in his sixties was taken to hospital after he crashed while off-road motorbiking in Penrhyncoch.

At around 11.50am on Saturday, 7 August, Dyfed-Powys Police officers attended an incident of an injured male motorcyclist.

The man, who was in his 60s, sustained suspected chest and shoulder injuries following the crash, while off-road riding.

The Aberdyfi Search and Rescue team also attended the scene, alongside Wales Ambulance Service, at around 12.30pm, after receiving a report from a neighbouring mountain rescue team at Brecon.

A spokesperson for Aberdyfi Search and Rescue Team said: “With Dyfed-Powys Police officers already on the scene, team members were deployed to the incident and the arrival on-scene of the first team volunteers coincided with that of the Welsh Ambulance Service.

“The casualty was assessed and treated by attending paramedics, and team members then assisted with a stretcher, carried to a waiting ambulance at the nearby road.

“The casualty was transported to hospital for further assessment and treatment.

“Team members stood down at 2.20pm.”
