    On Tuesday the Duke of Cambridge visited Triumph Motorcycles (the largest British motorcycle manufacturer) in Hinckley and he truly looks like a kid in a candy store. It's not every day you see a royal on a motorcycle, but when you do...it's iconic.

    The Duke tours the facilities at @UKTriumph in Hinckley, including the new £6million paint shop. Triumph Motorcycles have been based in Hinckley for more than two decades. pic.twitter.com/3Yh898wD5WFebruary 20, 2018
