Clifton “Click” Baldwin, 54, died Tuesday evening at St. Patrick Hospital after undergoing surgery, said Capt. Greg Hintz with the Missoula County Sheriff's Office.
The Montana Highway Patrol said a motorcycle driven by Baldwin was westbound in a no-passing zone on U.S. Highway 12 near Lolo Tuesday morning when he tried to pass a car that had slowed down and signaled a left turn. The motorcycle crashed into the back of the car.
Baldwin was owner of the Carolina Harley-Davidson Buell motorcycle dealership in Gastonia, N.C.
Also Tuesday, a man from Tacoma, Wash., died in a motorcycle crash near Lodge Grass. Officials say 58-year-old Lannie Scearay was westbound on Interstate 90 in a construction zone, when his rear tire blew out and he lost control of his motorcycle. He was pronounced dead at a Billings hospital. His name hasn't been released.
