Carlos, testing is your lifeline!

You want to be your best when racing on the track or on a hill!

Hello, Carlos! My name is Terry, good to meet you! I'm type 2 and test 3 or 4 times a day. Testing is definitely your lifeline, especially if type 1. I just turned 53, so I have you by a few years, just wanted to say hello and welcome!
