[QUOTE="Zinadane, post: 2727879, member: 397875"] When I cycle to work (15mile) I tend to go without food and usually also take 2-4 units to battle the fotf depending on how it's looking. This usually works well. Food and adjustments then at work. But if going on a 50miler etc. I need the breakfast first. I try and eat a couple of hours prior in order to get some level of stabilisation and trend prediction, but so far it usually always tends to go high during fotf. I never have the courage to take that little bit more insulin prior to a bike ride, even though I tend to carry way more carbs than I evere use. Agree, drink (night before and 2-3 to put me in a slight hangover state) can give a bonkers no insulin requirement next morning scenario! [/QUOTE]
