      I totally agree, and I have a different opinion of King Charles now based on how easily he interacted with the cyclists. That had to be quite an unreal experience for them to "bump" into King Charles strolling along a country road. Having it all on video is priceless.

    This reminds me of the time the Queen was out walking with only her Royal Protection Officer close by, when a couple of American tourists stopped and had a chat. They hadn't realised who she was, but assuming she was a 'local' asked her if she'd 'ever met the Queen?' She replied 'No I haven't - but he has'. They were quite impressed, and I have a vague feeling they asked the Queen if she would take a picture of them - with the RPO.

    "But I like my walking." in response to "So you've been left to walk?" Charles wasn't left to do anything. He decided to walk and the encumbrance of his entourage proceeded otherwise. I'm not a monarchist by any stretch but he remained dignified insofar as he could have said, I'm the King and I have it my way. The cyclists were as relaxed as one could want. Well done all around. "What a nice man." Yes, despite how silly Charles has been, he's no threat on a trail.

You would never have known she was a duchess though, in a shabby Barbour, old wellies and a battered hat.
