Watch video: Radio 1's Greg James in Rotherham on his epic Longest Ride for charity
GREG James delighted school children in Rotherham when he cycled through the town as part of his Comic Relief charity challenge.
The Radio 1 presenter is taking on his most gruelling and absurd challenge yet: cycling 1000kms across the UK over 8 arduous days…on a tandem… and after setting off from Worksop this morning he cycled through Woodsetts, North Anston, Dinnington, Laughton Common, Thurcroft, Wickersley, and Bramley before heading out through Ravenfield and Hooton Roberts.
Greg’s journey continued through Yorkshire and finished in York on Tuesday as he passed the halfway mark on his challenge.
