The driver of the Vauxhall Astra, a 53-year-old woman, was taken to hospital where she received medical treatment.
The deceased man’s family have released the following moving tribute:
“We are all completely devastated with sudden loss of Jordan. He was such a bright, intelligent and happy young man that had his whole future ahead of him.
“He was simply riding his motorcycle to work to do his dream job at Aston Martin when the collision occurred.
“He had worked so hard to get this job and he knew how proud we all were of him.
“He was such a kind, loving person and had a wicked sense of humour, always laughing or cracking jokes around the house. Everybody who knew him did not have a bad word to say.
“In his short life he had touched so many people and left behind so many happy memories that we will forever cherish.
“As a family we would like to thank everybody for their kind words and support but would particularly like to thank all the emergency service at the scene who tried to help Jordan.”
