A Colorado Springs man is dead following a motorcycle crash Thursday night.

The Colorado State Patrol said 39 year old Mark Alberts was leaving Monument on the southbound I-25 on-ramp shortly after 6:00.  He was reportedly passing cars on their right when he lost control of the motorcycle and slid into a guardrail.  Alberts, who was wearing a helmet, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Alcohol, drugs and excessive speed are all being considered as contributing factors, but the crash is still under investigation.
