A teenager was seriously injured in a trail bike crash in Northland on Sunday.

The male teenager was transported by helicopter to Whangārei Hospital in a serious condition after the crash at about midday.

A Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokesperson confirmed one crew from Ruawai had attended the scene.

Later in the afternoon, a male motorcycle rider - believed to be 50 years old - suffered moderate injuries from a separate crash on Kai Iwi Lakes Rd at about 3.15pm.
