Josh, et al.,

Hi Josh! It was great to meet you last weekend in Denville and Basking Ridge. I hope that you manage to interest some other young people who like to ride/race bicycles.

Now, for the other members of this forum -- I met Josh over Labor Day Weekend and I can vouch that he is a very enthusiastic bicycle racer and darned good at it as well. He does have a lot of adult supporters who know the ins and outs of bicycle racing. So, if you are interested it please contact him through his public profile.

Team Wells will be looking forward to seeing Josh and other young cyclists at some of the races next season. We'll be cheering for you!

Josh, look at the current edition of Bycycling magazine for a great article about professional cyclists with diabetes. They are amazing and people to admire. I love to cycle too. Enjoy it. Also Tour de France 3 time winner, Greg LeMond, has a Tour de Cure annually for diabetes reseach. Look it up you may want to participate. I wish you well.

Good for you Josh. Hope you inspire other kids too. This is something that I didn't do. I could have delayed my T2 diabetes if I had put myself into an active lifestyle.
Keep up the good work.

Good for you Josh.
I don't race but I do ride 20-30 miles when I can and find it helps my sugars as well.
