Pete fared better today, and we seemed to hit our stride. Until the middle of the day when my blood sugar decided to drop. I had plenty of food with me, and they were all things that had gently raised my blood sugar perfectly on past rides. But the hills! The constant grind up hundreds of feet per hill just sucked all the glucose out of my system. Just when I was considering whether I should take the SAG van to the overnight town, a tent appeared with home made, full sugar root beer. So. Unbelievably. Delicious. 2 cups, some doggy snuggles, and a 30-min nap at the next town and I was good to go. Keeping my sugar up the rest of the day was a challenge, but manageable. Stay tuned for tomorrow. I’m not sure if we’ll be able to get through the whole day, but we know we can get through at least the first half. Tomorrow will be the toughest.
