Bike Ride With Bob Schrank

Bob stopped twice during our ride to check his blood sugar.

Team Type 1 Development Team Manager Bob Schrank stopped in Omaha this morning as part of a local appearance (which thankfully I did not have to coordinate).

The best part about his visit was the opportunity to get a quick bike ride in. It was my pleasure to show off part of Omaha's trail system. We headed south toward Bellevue and got about a 15-mile ride in.

Like every rider on Team Type 1's developmental squad, Bob has Type 1 diabetes. He was also captain of the squad that finished second in the Race Across America. So riding 15 miles is hardly even a blip on the radar compared to pedaling more than 2,000 miles across the country.
