NANAIMO — Emergency responders are astounded a dirt bike rider didn’t lose his life when he fell down steep, rocky bluffs along the Nanaimo Parkway.
RCMP Cst. Gary O’Brien said the 35-year-old man was riding his small dirt bike west of the Nanaimo Parkway around Fifth St. late on Friday, June 7.
“Whatever the reason, he actually drove over a 30 foot embankment and hit the ground. By the grace of God he wasn’t significantly injured,” O’Brien said.
