TEAM TYPE 1

 

Team Type 1 is for people living with diabetes to join together to support WA children with type 1 and showcase the courage it takes to live every day with this difficult disease. The Telethon Juvenile Diabetes Family Centre Mountain Bike Team Challenge recognizes riders with diabetes as the special heroes of the event!

 

BEING A TEAM TYPE 1 MEMBER MEANS…

That YOU are not alone! You can ride to thrive with diabetes! With hundreds of riders who may share a similar story, and hundreds more to support you, being a Team Type 1 member can help with your first mile or your millionth—in your fight to live a healthier life! Riding your bike is a great way to stay in shape and exercise is extremely important for everyone with diabetes.
