At around 7:15 p.m. this evening, two motorcycles were traveling north towards Abilene on FM 89 when the first motorcycle had a blowout causing the rider to lay the bike down on the roadway. The second bike, unable to avoid the first one, went off the road into the barrow ditch and crashed. The driver of the first cycle suffered minor injuries; however, the rider of the second cycle was seriously injured and transported to Hendrick Medical Center.
