[QUOTE="Fairygodmother, post: 2381260, member: 68789"] I agree with [USER=70535]@barrym[/USER], it’s helpful to set a low sugars alarm a little higher so you’ve time to sort it out, especially if you’re cycling; a hypo on a bike, on the road, isn’t a good idea. If your brain is impaired through lack of glucose, and your reaction time is slower, plus the risk of impaired balance, then you’ll not be enjoying yourself. I set mine at 4.8 and 8.2, but I’m not cyclist. I’ve encountered a one cycling T1s and most of them also carry a bottle of sugary liquid so they can easily treat impending lows. Drivers need to be 5 to drive if that’s a useful comparison. It’s great that you’re looking to use alarms to go well. I wish you many years of happy T1 cycling. [/QUOTE]
