Arnold Schwarzenegger Cycles Around London, Leaves Trail of Disbelieving Tweets

New Delhi: When Arnold Schwarzenegger intoned I'll be back in the Terminator series, he probably meant to say "I'll be bike." The former Governator spent Wednesday morning cycling around London on a 'Boris bike,' the public hire cycles championed by Mayor Boris Johnson.

Two wheels took Arnie around central London to Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly Circus and Regent Street:

Londoner after Londoner appeared to send the morning either almost knocking the 67-year-old actor-politician off his bike or getting out of his way.

On Twitter, commuters confessed to a degree of disbelief in the evidence of their own eyes and apologized for almost felling Arnie from his bike. Here are some of the comments with Arnie's responses:
 

I'm sure I just saw @Schwarzenegger on a @SantanderCycles outside @Queen_UK's Buckingham Palace #celebspot #tourist

On the bus to work, and genuinely just nearly ran over @Schwarzenegger riding a Boris bike across Piccadilly Circus #nohelmet #illbeback

Don't worry, I would have been fine- living tissue over a metal skeleton. https://t.co/PQV0gIWz4k

Apologies to @Schwarzenegger for nearly bumping him off his boris bike this morning in my Range Rover. Didn't expect Terminator in Regent St

You're forgiven. https://t.co/ZqMHFH7eaM

One perplexed user asked:
 

Why is everyone trying to knock Arnold @Schwarzenegger off his Boris Bike in London this morning? pic.twitter.com/qPuHjiigCo

While another pointed out that it would be the Terminator doing the knocking over, not the other way round:
 

Lot of stories about @Schwarzenegger nearly being knocked off his bike today, or more factual Arnie knocking cars/buses over with his bike.

"Exactly," Mr Schwarzenegger agreed, adding this request:
 

In case I do get hit, can you give me a list of bodyshops so I know where to direct the drivers to fix their cars? https://t.co/JaJALE7y2o

Here in India, Omar Abdullah sniggered:
