I'm type 1- diagnosed at age 27- and am just starting getting back into riding. I haven't ridden since I was "normal" but I'm REALLY trying! It's just that I have to get into this sooooooooooooooooo sloooooooooooowly so I can adjust my insulin dose - and I am not known for my patience! I'm on a pump and cgms so I'm just waiting for my body to adjust. I joined a gym to help speed up this process.
I also already threw out a huge goal- to ride 30 miles as a Red Rider in our local Tour de Cure. http://main.diabetes.org/goto/Leann is my page...
I plan to blog on that site about my training from this "haven't ridden in years" stage to where 30 miles will be a breeze...haha... so stay tuned!
Would be great to meet other diabetics and swap tips!
