Motorcycle Crash at Castlewood Canyon | Denver News

A 24-year-old motorcyclist took a terrifying plunge off Castlewood Canyon’s 60-foot drop on State Highway 83 in Denver, crashing so badly rescue teams had to use ropes for an “extended extrication.” Found in serious condition, he was airlifted in critical status — the only person involved. The crash blocked traffic, forcing a 90-minute highway shutdown. Authorities are investigating. A sobering reminder: one wrong move on two wheels can change everything.
