Harry Styles joins James Corden on his favoured mode of transport as close friends ride matching eco-bikes through Primrose Hill

Harry Styles joins James Corden on his favorite mode of transport as close friends ride around Primrose Hill on matching eco-bikes

Shoppers in London got an unexpected treat on Wednesday after spotting Harry Styles and James Corden as they cycled around the city.

The best friends were seen weaving through traffic while riding identical eco-bikes, Corden’s favorite mode of transportation since moving to Britain with his family.

Cycling through leafy Primrose Hill, Styles, 29, suggested he knew his way during the cycling skills test by signaling passing drivers as he prepared to make a turn.

Following closely behind, 45-year-old Corden, easily spotted in a strikingly patterned Gucci sweater, copied the former One Direction star’s cues as they rode their matching e-bikes.

But they seemed to mix up their traffic rules a bit as they appeared to cycle through red lights while neighboring cars waited in line.

Corden looked happy as he rode his electric bike, and it’s not the first time the star has been spotted riding it.

In August, the father-of-three was turned away by a Mayfair doorman after parking his e-bike outside a pub.

He was also spotted riding the trademark green bicycle while doing errands in London on Tuesday.

The eco-friendly mode of transportation is an electric bicycle made by Lime, a transportation company founded in 2017 in San Francisco, California.

Styles has been enjoying regular public appearances with Corden since returning to London after an eight-year stint in Los Angeles, where he hosted The Late Late Show.

The final episode aired in April 2023 and he subsequently returned to the UK with his wife Julia Carey and their three children.

While accompanying the host on Wednesday, Styles looked typically stylish in a blue overshirt and chinos, teamed with a pair of black Vans sneakers.

With his hair in a loose topknot, the former One Direction singer inevitably attracted attention as the pair idled at a traffic light, where they were filmed by eagle-eyed pedestrians.

The appearance comes after a cyclist passed the international pop star on Hampstead Heath last week.

In a short video uploaded to TikTok, a man is seen cycling through the picturesque enclave in northwest London, only to pass Harry Styles and his new girlfriend, actress Taylor Russell.

Although the cyclist didn’t notice former One Direction star Harry, his pet cat – who was in his bike basket – certainly didn’t after spotting the singer’s dog, Root.

The white moggy spots the dog from his elevated vantage point and meows aggressively as they pass by, catching Harry and Taylor’s attention.
