Two Council Bluffs men were killed in separate motorcycle crashes Saturday. The Daily Non Pareil reports 66-year old Randy Thompson died at a hospital from head injuries he suffered when his cycle and another motorcycle collided at the intersection of L-34 and Mahogany Road near Underwood,  a little after 1-p.m. Saturday. He was not wearing a helmet . Pottawattamie County Sheriff Jeff Danker told the paper Thompson was at the back of a single-file group of cyclists going south on L34 and approaching a “sharp turn” prior to Mahogany.

Tthe first two bikes were able to slow down with the intention of turning left onto Mahogany, but Thompson was reportedly going too fast around that turn, striking the lead motorcycle, reportedly carrying Mark and Gail Leber, of Council Bluffs. Gail Leber was taken by Neola Rescue to Alegent Creighton Health Mercy Hospital in Council Bluffs with minor injuries, according to Danker.
