Now there are less than a week. The 6:07 September a small group of cyclists with diabetes (including me) will leave from Perugia to Rome with the racing bike: the Changing Diabetes & Love Bike Tour 2008! The mini-tour of about 200km is dedicated to couples with passion and love can also be found to ride together and share the adventure of diabetes. Nicely someone will take part in tandem! But other cyclists (including myself) will be accompanied by loved ones, in which participating without pedaling: play the important work of supporting the organization of the group to which they belong, and especially to encourage their half. Not to mention the exceptional coaching staff and doctor to follow! The tour is relatively short, but the climb up there will make the ride interesting in terms of cycling ...
There will be an opportunity to give greater visibility to the initiative and media messages about diabetes that it brings: the day after our arrival by bicycle, the 'September 8, Rome will open the important international congress EASD diabetes. Also participate as a cyclist with diabetes at the opening of the Changing Diabetes Village organized by Novo Nordisk near the Roman Forum, on the occasion of the visit to Italy Diabetes Bus, which runs around the world for years. I will bring the experience of the Youth Panel. The press conference will present the institutional authorities with diabetes and sports personalities. Finally at the Ara Pacis will present results of the DAWN Youth.
What can I say ... It looks like a great experience! We hope to have fun as friends and as couples, to ride bikes together as lovers, and to pass something good to others as people with diabetes. Later publish more news, with a final report of its activities. If you can also write in real time the progress of the tour! See you soon ...
