Group Ride

Yesterday, I went for a group bike ride with a pro from Team Novo Nordisk. In case you haven’t heard of them, they are an all T1 team of professional road cyclists, mountain bikers and triathletes. Their primary goal is to field a team in the Tour de France in 2021, the 100th anniversary of the discovery of the stuff that keeps us alive. It was an easy 30 mile ride, but super inspiring to see someone who is chasing very ambitious physical goals and not letting T1D slow him down. Also fun to chase someone with a pump clipped to his jersey pocket. If anyone has any kids with aspirations to be endurance athletes, he said they are actively seeking athletes for their development program.
