And that bike is long, so there&#8217;s lot&#8217;s more for the wind to hit. You can&#8217;t quite trust the downhill because if the road is a bit uneven or it&#8217;s bumpy I&#8217;m concentrating on that and the wind can suddenly take the back wheels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The thing I didn&#8217;t think about was the concentration it takes to do the actual cycling because I don&#8217;t want to fall off, and I&#8217;m hurtling down these hills because I want to get there as quickly as possible&#8230;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">I just really, really need people to donate for this stupid thing, please. I&#8217;d love to wake up tomorrow, aching, with my knees screaming, to a nice big total. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Head to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/greg\" class=\"ssrcss-15td0ur-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">bbc.co.uk\/greg<\/a> for all the details on how to donate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Things are getting trickypublished at 14:03 GMT 14:03 GMT Greg JamesLive from Radio 1&#8217;s Longest Ride The weather&#8217;s&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":330981,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[156,157,111,139,69],"class_list":["post-330980","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-entertainment","tag-music","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/330980","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=330980"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/330980\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/330981"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=330980"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=330980"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=330980"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
