He's currently embroiled in a planning permission war with the residents of the Cornish village in which he owns a sprawling £4.4 million holiday home.

But Gordon Ramsay seemed to have brushed the dispute under the carpet as he looked happy and healthy while out and about in Los Angeles, California, on Tuesday.

The celebrity chef left little to the imagination as he stepped out in the affluent neighbourhood of Pacific Palisades dressed in full Lycra.

Leaving little to the imagination: Gordon Ramsay highlighted his muscular physique in Lycra cycling gear as he ran errands in Los Angeles, California, on Tuesday

Gordon, 49, highlighted his muscular physique in the skin-tight cycling gear which comprised a black and red one-piece.

The practical workout wear comprised cycling shorts and a short-sleeved zip-up top beneath which he wore a grey T-shirt.

The Hell's Kitchen star's legs looked in especially good shape as he went about his day in the thigh-skimming one-piece.

Gordon too prioritised comfort when it came to his footwear and he pounded the pavement in a pair of black Nike running trainers which he offset with the same brand of fluro-coloured socks.

Meanwhile, an adidas cap provided him an element of coverage from both the paps and the beating afternoon sun.

He was seen carrying an iced drink and a copy of real estate magazine Homes & Land which he may have picked up in order to seek some advice on his plans to build a large garden house in the grounds of his holiday home in Rock, Cornwall.

Despite spending £4.4million on the property, the 49-year-old is planning to tear it down and replace it with a state-of-the-art home - while also building a separate annex at the bottom of the garden - much to the disapproval of the village's residents.

His team of architects have now submitted a full planning application - but three residents in the village, which is nicknamed Kensington-on-Sea, have objected to the proposed annex.

Locals have described it as 'overdevelopment' and fear it could set a 'dangerous precedent' in the area of outstanding natural beauty where the average house costs £800,000.
