LONDON -- It's a special day in Britain's capital when Arnold Schwarzenegger decides to pay a visit.

Reported sightings from Londoners of the former governor of California started pouring in on Twitter Wednesday morning.

On the bus to work, and genuinely just nearly ran over @Schwarzenegger riding a Boris bike across Piccadilly Circus #nohelmet #illbeback— Dan Morgan (@Danhmorgan) June 17, 2015

I'm sure I just saw @Schwarzenegger on a @SantanderCycles outside @Queen_UK's Buckingham Palace #celebspot #tourist— mister rf (@rsfrsfrsf) June 17, 2015

It wasn't long before the big man himself popped up to confirm that it was indeed him -- in his trademark no-nonsense style, of course.

You are correct. https://t.co/CVuzPDzNpo— Arnold (@Schwarzenegger) June 17, 2015

He also delivered this brilliant response to one tweeter who worried for his safety.

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— Arnold (@Schwarzenegger) June 17, 2015

The hulking Austrian is in town to promote Terminator: Genisys and he'll be attending a screening of the new film later Wednesday evening. But he was clearly keen to carry out a spot of sightseeing first. His travels took him from Piccadilly Circus and Regent Street to Buckingham Palace.
