22-year-old dies after losing control of trail bike in N.H. state park

WINCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — A man died after losing control of his trail bike and crashing into a tree, New Hampshire Fish and Game Department conservation officers said.

The 22-year-old man from Hinsdale was traveling north on Reservoir Road in Pisgah State Park in Winchester on Sunday afternoon, officers said. He was found unresponsive by his riding companion, who called 911.

The man did not survive, despite efforts from emergency responders.

The man’s name hasn’t been released, pending notification of family.

The crash remains under investigation, but it appears that excessive speed and operator inattention are the primary contributing factors, officers said.
