Kate Middleton left her husband and the future King, Prince William, trailing in her mountain bike dust yesterday, as the royal couple delighted the watching crowds in a Crankworx style Dual Slalom-ish royal family battle. Kate and William are known for their love of sports and jumped on mountain bikes for an impromptu MTB ride as they visited a Scottish charity. Outfit Moray is an award-winning charity that provides mental health support to young people by delivering life-changing outdoor activities, including mountain biking programs for kids in Moray, Scotland.
It was Kate who outshone her husband with some half decent mountain biking skills as they donned their MTB helmets as the princess showed some excellent focus and control over her Forme Curbar 1 hardtail mountain bike. She looked a surprisingly confident rider, so could Kate be ready to deal with some of the best downhill tracks, and challenge the likes of Valentina Höll, the current Women's downhill world champion?
