A man on a motorcycle was airlifted Saturday after plunging down an embankment off Dale Ridge Road in the Cove Hollow area.
Trooper Bobby Johnson of the Tennessee Highway Patrol said 67 year old Edward Presnar of Gallatin was on a 2005 Harley Davidson motorcycle traveling north on Dale Ridge Road when he failed to negotiate a curve and went off the highway hitting several trees as he plunged about 30 feet down a steep wooded hillside.
Fire and rescue volunteers brought Presnar back up to the highway where he was loaded onto an ambulance and transported to a helicopter landing zone and then airlifted to Vanderbilt Hospital.
