Touring with diabetes
My wife and I are looking forward to a 4-5 day tour on our tandem in the late spring. Pretty much, we will be riding the C&O Canal towpath. There is minimal intrusion of civilization on most of the canal.
This could be an issue as I am a Type 2 diabetic. I am under very good control and use an oral medication (glipizide) which can cause low blood sugar. I plan to keep my meter handy and check frequently. With meds and snacks, I should have few problems, but it would be good to know how others have dealt with these issues.
Thanks,
Doc
