The TeamBG mHealth Grand Tour is about to start! This year a group of amateur cyclist drawn from the diabetes online community will be cycling 2300km from Barcelona to Vienna in just 15 days. Arriving in Vienna on 15th September to coincide with the opening of the Annual Diabetes conference EASD (European Industry Association for the Study of Diabetes).
The Team will be welcomed by the Austrian Diabetes Association and the International Diabetes Federation at the conference. The ride will be an opportunity to raise awareness around diabetes and the importance of exercise in the management of diabetes, to trial new technologies and most importantly to fly the flag for the importance of the patient voice.
Get behind your team! These boys and girls aren't trained athletes; they have nevertheless signed up for the challenge of their lives, ready to learn, to share and to advocate for exercise and good blood glucose management.
There will be daily updates on the TeamBG website to follow, with photos of the milage and climbs that will be enough to make your eyes water.
The epic ride will begin on the 30th August.
