Great Southern rocked by another holiday road death as motorcyclist killed in Rocky Gully crash

A 50-year-old motorcyclist has been killed in a crash in Rocky Gully in WA’s Great Southern.

Police say the man was riding a Kawasaki motorcycle north on Nornalup Road between 12.20 and 1.20pm on Wednesday when it left the road and struck a tree.

He died of his injuries at the scene.

The rider’s death was the 27th on the roads in the Great Southern Police District this year — significantly higher than the five-year average of 19.

It comes after the loss of Perth man Graeme Carmody in a fatal crash near Kendenup on Christmas Day.
