The Bundaberg-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter has airlifted a man, after he crashed his bicycle and was impaled by the leg on his handlebars.
The chopper was called to the scene, at a park in the Gladstone region, just after 10am.
The Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) Flight Paramedic worked with local paramedics to treat the man, aged in his 70s.
Queensland Fire and Emergency Service (QFES) personnel had to remove the handlebars from the rest of the bike, so the man could be airlifted.
He was flown to Bundaberg Hospital for urgent medical treatment, in a stable condition.
