The death of a motocross rider is being investigated after he fell off his motorcycle and suffered serious injuries in a horrific crash.
The motorcyclist fell from his motorcycle at high speed at the Gap Creek Moto track on the Cunningham Highway in Tregony, south-east Queensland, at 11.45am on Saturday.
Paramedics performed CPR in an attempt to revive the man, but he suffered life-threatening injuries in the crash and were unable to be saved.
A Queensland Police spokesman said the incident was not being treated as suspicious.
“Police will prepare a report for the coroner following the sudden death of a man following a single-vehicle crash near Tregony at 11.45am,” the spokesman said.
Forensic accident units are investigating the incident.
‘There is no further information at this time.’
A Queensland Ambulance spokeswoman confirmed to the Daily Mail that Australian emergency services responded to the single-vehicle crash.

Gap Creek Moto is a privately owned camping and dirt bike rental facility located approximately 10 km west of scenic Cunningham’s Gap.
The track, which is situated on a sprawling 650-acre site, offers a “unique driving experience for individuals and families,” according to its website.
The circuit is suitable for senior and junior cyclists and consists of around 20km of trails and enduro circuits. There are also camping facilities nearby.
Riders must wear their safety gear, including a helmet, goggles, gloves, motocross boots, long pants and a long-sleeved shirt before using the facilities.
Quads are not permitted on the track.
Gap Creek Moto declined to comment when contacted by Daily Mail Australia.
