Pippa explained, "I was a bit of a tomboy when I was little and have always loved cycling, so I spent a lot of my childhood on a mountain bike, riding on lanes and woody tracks. There's something very adventurous about heading off on a bike ride."

She added, "Exercise is a massive part of my life and a very personal thing for me; it's so important for both the mind and body. It's always fun to cycle through the country - it gives me a sense of freedom and is a great workout, too."

Pippa also explained how she is preparing herself for her upcoming charity bike race.

The sports enthusiast said, "I've been doing two spin classes a week at the gym and then a couple of two-hour bike rides at the weekend to train for the London to Brighton cycle ride. I also have a turbo trainer at home [a device that allows you to ride your bike stationary, indoors], which I use if I have a busy week, though I much prefer to be out in the fresh air."
