Wednesday test drive on motorcycle leads to riders death

A man was test driving a motorcycle at Alamo Cycle Plex in San Antonio Wednesday afternoon around 3:45pm.

The man reported to be 43 years old, was pulling out of the motorcycle dealership riding a black 2005 Kawasaki and getting onto the eastbound access lane near Dezavala Rd. when apparently a problem began. The man was first clipped by a small yellow car knocking him off the motorcycle. Then the man was struck by a second car.

Authorities arrived shortly after 4:00pm and shut down a section of I-10 for about an hour and a half. The investigators were attempting to discover whether the motorcycles malfunction was due to mechanical failure or the riders mistake.

The cyclists name was not released at the time. But it was stated that the rider was wearing a helmet.
