Team Type 1 raising awareness

I've been raving a lot about the big names and big teams coming to the Tour of California. But a small team with a cool mission has also been invited. That team is Team Type 1. VeloNews has a nice little feature on the team and their goals going into the TOC. The team began as a way to show that people with Type 1 diabetes can still live active lives and don't have to let the disease stop them from taking on big challenges. The team also showcases some of the latest devices used to help Type 1 diabetics, as some members of the squad have Type 1 diabetes and use those devices when they race. I'll be pulling for them to get into some breaks and maybe come away with a win in California.
