An accident in Barga this week cost the life of a motorcyclist who was here in the area on holiday and taking part in one of the organised Enduro motorcycle courses run by the Ciocco hotel. Keherer Ingebor (28) from Salisburgo, Austria was with a group of fellow enthusiasts taking part in tour with the Enduro Camp KTM Adventure Tour using the road from Ponte di Catagnana to Barga. According to witnesses and tyre tracks on the road, the rider crashed into an oncoming tractor driven by Roberto Agostini, (47) from Barga. Agostini was quoted at the scene as saying that two motorcyclists came past him at speed, he turned his tractor closer to the wall expecting other bikes but he was not in time to avoid the oncoming bike ridden by the Austrian.
She was thrown from her KTM and end up on the far side of the guard rail. Her companions tried mouth to mouth resuscitation but without success as she was already dead by the time the medics arrived on the scene.
