Whilst Greg is no stranger to Comic Relief challenges, Radio 1\u2019s Longest Ride will throw him truly out of his comfort zone as he takes on the longest challenge and furthest distance ever completed by a Radio 1 challenger.<\/p>\n
From his start line in Weymouth on 13th March, Greg will need every ounce of physical and mental strength to keep pedalling as his journey takes him through Wales, the Midlands and the North of England, to his finish line in Edinburgh on Friday 20 March \u2013 Red Nose Day itself.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After his 2018 challenge, Greg had said \u2018never again\u2019 – but he\u2019s back and pushing himself to the limits for Comic Relief. This time, Greg is raising funds for projects that help people eat, sleep and feel safe, offering local, fast support when and where it\u2019s needed most.<\/p>\n
Greg won\u2019t be facing the hills, bumps and byways of Britain totally alone. He\u2019ll be joined by some surprise guests at points along the route to show the power of simply being connected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Whilst Greg is no stranger to Comic Relief challenges, Radio 1\u2019s Longest Ride will throw him truly out…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":423165,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[4985,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-423164","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cycling","tag-cycling","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/423164","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=423164"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/423164\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/423165"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=423164"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=423164"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=423164"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
