The family of a 75-year-old motorcyclist who died in a collision earlier this month have paid tribute to a "loving dad and proud granda".
Bill Gibbeson, of Alnwick, died after the motorbike he was riding was involved in a collision on the B6341 in Alnwick shortly before 2pm on Friday March 17. Emergency services attended the scene and despite the best effort of paramedics, Bill was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.
His family said in a statement: "Bill was a loving dad to Sara, Susan, Philip and Elizabeth, as well as a proud granda to Kieran, Grace, Ruby, Hannah and Evie. He was always smiling and telling jokes, there was never a dull moment.
