Ouch! Multiple Motorcyclists Suffer Injuries on the Kyffhäuser Route
Multiple bikers experienced crashes along the Kyffhäuser roadway. - Motorcyclists Involved in Accident on Kyffhäuser Road
You know what's not a fun ride? The Kyffhäuser route in Nordhausen. Last weekend, it turned into a bumpy one, with five motorcyclists ending up in the hospital after accidents!
Saturday was a particularly gruesome day. Two motorcycles collided between Kelbra and the Kyffhäuser monument turnoff. The 25-year-old rider lost control of his bike due to a driving error, zooming onto the opposite lane, right into the path of a 41-year-old's oncoming motorcycle. Both riders were rushed to the hospital with serious injuries, according to the cops. The B85 was closed for a while, just so they could sort out the mess and give the road a good cleanup.
Things took a turn for the worse as early as Friday, with three motorcyclists going down on this curvy, tumultuous route. A 26-year-old crashed on the 36 twisty turns leading to the Kyffhäuser, taking a spill due to yet another driving error. He was carted off to the hospital with a slew of injuries.
Previously, reports suggest that a 29-year-old and a 19-year-old had also had their bike-riding dreams dashed, as they too ended up in the hospital clutching their wounds (metaphorically and literally). The police files for these accidents all bore the ominous title: "... once again the '36 curves'".
