There were two reported road fatalities during the weekend period which finished this morning both motorcyclists.
Police said the first crash occurred as a woman motorcyclist was following a ute on State Highway 3 near Bulls about midday yesterday.
The ute collided with an oncoming car, which then ploughed into the motorcyclist.
A second motorcyclist following the ute also crashed escaping with minor injuries.
Police said it appeared the car crossed the centreline.
Soon afterwards, 34-year-old Lance John Chalk was killed in Northland.
Police said it appeared he lost control while riding his motorbike on SH1 at Kauri, north of Whangarei, sliding on gravel and hitting a culvert on the side of the road.
