[QUOTE="Wurst, post: 1217128, member: 44101"] In my experience cycling is by far the best exercise for BS control and also weight control. I cycle to work every day ~ 30 kms per day in all seasons and weather conditions. Summer weekends I'm out on my road bike for ~ 70 km rides. I started off 4 years ago shortly after diagnosis and it's been invaluable for diabetes management, I wouldn't have tight control without cycling. I tend to push it on all cycle rides to get the most benefit, coasting is a waste of time for me in terms of BS management. My last 70 km ride I had an average speed of 32.1 km/per h , which is fairly respectable. It's fairly flat where I live , I would love to see my BS after a few steep hills or even a mountain or two :-) [/QUOTE]
