Investigators believe the man was driving a motorcycle southwest when an SUV, driven by an 88-year-old woman from Winnipeg, heading in the opposite direction attempted a left-hand turn in front of him.

The man struck the vehicle and was thrown from his bike, while the SUV crashed into another vehicle that was stopped on Loudoun Road waiting to turn.
