He lost control of his motorbike on the double bend on the provincial road 7 to San Salvatore , ending up off the road. Marco Poddi, 42 , died like this, on Wednesday evening : the Ducati Monster , with the man's body underneath, was noticed by a farmer only around 9pm.
The alarm was raised immediately with the intervention of 118, the fire brigade and the Highway Police officers. For Poddi, son of the entrepreneurs who run the well-known bakery-pastry shop Paf 5 in Cabras , there was nothing more that could be done.
The operations to survey and recover the 42-year-old's body continued until after midnight.
