Greg James' Bike Ride for Dad's Recovery

0:00On March 20th, BBC Radio 1's Greg James is about to wrap up his 1,000 kilometer bike ride for comic relief today, March 20th. The challenge supports Red Nose Day fundraising, and along the way, he gave listeners an emotional update on his father's recovery from a recent. He kicked off in Waymouth, rode through the Midlands, and has now reached Scotland with the finish line in Edinburgh. His parents have been fully behind him, listening to his morning show at 7am and sharing in every moment. Greg has been talking often with his mum, but he noted it's strange not hearing from his dad, who hasn't been able to speak yet. Still, his parents remain proud, even if they think the whole adventure is a bit crazy. A nurse's video brought good news yesterday. His dad was sitting up, attempting a classic dad joke, and moving his legs, showing feeling returning to. His left side. These signs point to steady improvement. Tonight's Red Nose Day telethon on BBC One at 7pm will feature sketches, donor impacts, and celebrations of challenges like Greg's all to raise.
