Greg James’ five-word confession as Radio One DJ competes gruelling Comic Relief bike ride challenge

This is the moment that Greg James crosses the finish line for his 1,000km Comic Relief challenge.

On Friday (20 March), the BBC Radio 1 presenter, 40, completed his eight-day tandem bike challenge, which saw him cycle from Weymouth to Edinburgh.

During his charity challenge, he was joined by the likes of Prince William, Jamie Laing and Tour de France winner Geraint Thomas.

“I can’t believe it’s done!,” he cried as he crossed the finish line. “I couldn’t see, I just kept bursting into tears at everyone I saw. Please, let me get off this bike.”

His charity challenge has raised over £4million and counting.
