The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh enjoyed an action-packed afternoon in Manchester on Friday.
Prince Edward, who turns 60 next month, and his wife Sophie, 59, stepped out together for the British Cycling National Track Championships at the National Cycling Centre in the city.
And the sporty pair got stuck in, trying their hand at adaptive cycling as they met participants of the Limitless accessible cycling programme.
Run by British Cycling, it provides cycling opportunities for disabled people, regardless of age, impairment and ability.
Sophie, who looked chic in a navy blazer, trousers and a striped top, made a new four-legged friend as she met a guide dog during an adaptive cycling demonstration.
The Duchess is the patron of the British Cycling Federation and also watched some of the day one events in the Velodrome, including Women's Scratch Qualification, Final Para-Cycling C1-5 Time Trial and Men’s Sprint Quarter-Finals.

Meanwhile, Edward, who is President of Sport and Recreation Alliance, also had separate solo engagements at the Royal Exchange Theatre and University Academy 92 and Shockout Arts.

He also stopped at the community-owned and run Flo's – the Place in the Park – to meet local volunteers helping to tackle food poverty and later met staff and artists at the Story Museum.

Sophie, who is patron of LCF, opted for a navy blue Emilia Wickstead shirt dress for her engagement.
