Biker airlifted from Marsh

At about 4:20pm on Sunday (June 21,) police were called to the Camber Road, near East Guldeford, where the third of four motorcycles riding in convoy, a white Yamaha R6, had left the road and gone into a ditch. Its rider, a 27-year-old man from Eastbourne, suffered serious leg and chest injuries and was airlifted to the Royal Sussex County Hospital, Brighton, by the Kent, Surrey and Sussex Air Ambulance. He was detained for treatment and is now slowly recovering. The road was closed for around an hour and a half while the incident was dealt with. No other vehicle was involved and no one else was hurt. (Source: Sussex Police)
