Mountain bikers bump into King Charles on Balmoral walk

The King surprised a group of cyclists who were going for a ride around Balmoral when he stopped to talk to them.

The monarch was hiking alone on the Scottish estate over the summer when he passed the mountain bikers, who happened to be filming during the unlikely encounter.

Wearing a flat cap and brown padded jacket and carrying a walking stick, the King chatted to the group about the weather and reminisced on some of his childhood memories on the estate with his family.

In footage posted to YouTube by Andrew McAvoy, a professional mountain biker from Lochgilphead, in Scotland, the King can be heard asking the men if they had cycled around the estate before – joking that they were probably “old hands”.
