THE partner of a well-loved motorcyclist who tragically died in a crash is appealing for witnesses to come forward.
Ryan Hastings, known to many by his nickname 'Titch,' passed away nearly a month ago in a collision on the A456 Bewdley Bypass.
The crash, which involved a green Kawasaki motorbike and a red Vauxhall Corsa, happened at around 4.35pm on Monday, August 21.
Mr Hastings, aged 32, who lived in the Spennells area of Kidderminster, has been described as a "character" who was "full of life."
His partner Chloe Doughty, aged 22, paid tribute to him.
She said: "I fell in love with him the day we went out on the bike for the first time.
"He was really funny, really full of life all the time. He had ADHD so he couldn't sit still. He loved the outdoors. Loved his motorbikes, loved his music. He was a mechanic by trade.
"He loved his friends, he loved his partying - anything that doesn't require you to sit still for too long.
"He had lots and lots and lots of friends. He was so loved. He was young, full of ambitions, full of plans".
Ms Doughty is appealing for those who witnessed the crash to get in contact with the police with any information they may have.
"We all just want answers, she added.
"Either way it's not going to bring him back. But it will just bring us a bit of closure".
West Mercia Police launched an appeal for information following the incident last month.
Police Constable Saman Barzanji said: ''Our thoughts are with the man’s family at this sad time.
"I would like to appeal to anyone who witnessed the collision or has any information or dash-cam footage which may help with the investigation to call me on 101 extension 7733402 or by email on saman.barzanji@westmercia.police.uk quoting incident number 311i of the 21 August.''
An inquest into the death of Mr Hastings is set to be held in December.
