Mitchell Brock Glisson was driving north at a "very high rate of speed" at the time of the accident, which happened about 1:28 a.m. near the intersection with Bear Road in Christmasville, according to a news release from the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
His motorcycle, a 2001 Suzuki SVS, struck a bump in the road, went airborne and entered a "high-speed wobble," the release says.
Glisson lost control and struck a tree; the vehicle came to a rest 704 feet away, the report says. He was wearing a helmet at the time of the accident, the report says.
