Original Story:

Vernon RCMP need help locating a 25-year-old man who went missing Tuesday afternoon.

The man did not return home from a motor-bike ride on Tuesday, and was reported missing early Wednesday morning. He was riding a bike that looks similar to the one pictured, a grey and white Pinster. The man went riding around 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday and was not wearing a helmet. His family is very concerned about his well-being as he is not a very experienced rider.

The man may have riding the dirt bike from the Mission hill area, to the Commonage, and as far as Predator Ridge. The man's name has not been released.
