Cycling with Type 2 Diabetes.

Well 1st on back on the bike 10 miles done took it steady on the MTB but Cyclepaths and Road no Off Road just yet.
Felt good on getting back and didn't raid the Fridge as per normal small Piece of Pineapple and a Ginger Nut.....
Onwards along the Recovery Road Clinic Tuesday with a filled in Food Diary reckon average marks for that but we'll see.

So time for an update and all good news
back up to distances of 40 miles just watching feed intake during rides
Found Low Cal Lucozade diluted 50/50 works for me as fluid replacement and increasing slightly my blood sugar level pre ride of a big distance
Blood Sugar levels are under control and my last HbA1c result was good
Today managed a 20 mile ride with an average speed of 15 miles an hour not done that in ages
So all looking up...now just to do a complete FNRttC probably Whitstable in August
and i'm back to where I was before Diabetes tried to change my life.
Just Rearranging the Bikes in the stable and changing types of riding more Leisure and Distance than Speed and Distance or even just Speed as per the Old Me.
Sorry for a long post just thought I'd update
