Boas pedaladas,
A meteorologia indicava alguma chuva
mas o sol vingou-se. A glicémia em jejum rondava o espetacular, 146mg/dL,
reduzi a basal e a rápida nas proporções previstas para o esforço que ia
despender (relembro que não há regras, a intimidade com a nossa diabetes é uma
questão de anos e treino, veja-se o exemplo do blue O, Pedro Felício, nos 120km
neste fim de semana Porto Corvo-Alvalade-Porto Corvo no seu Facebook).
Estávamos praticamente todos à hora do
briefing onde o Infante ia avisando das possíveis ocorrências, saindo os grupos
na ordem esquematizada. Coube-me o António Cabaço, o Valério,
e o Filipe Salvado.
Como é do conhecimento de muitos,
neste passeio guiado por GPS, o ajuntamento de grupos é consequente e a
entreajuda é sobejamente provocada, coisa boa no BTT. O Pinto, como sempre, surpreende-nos
pelos trilhos, mas este ano foi abusado nas subidas, Castelo Novo, serra da
Gardunha...
Depois da Ponte Velha, a caminho de
Alpedrinha, depois de uma foto, fiz o já normal, workshop de remendar a camara
de ar, depois de avisar veio o Cabaço em meu auxilio. Ficou indignado, pior
ficou em confirmar que ainda tenho remendos "do tempo do Guterres" -
transcrevo - ainda me desculpei com os furos das ultimas provas mas não tive
desculpas...
- "Tubless e CO2, tens que te
actualizar"!!!
- "Mas eu tenho na minha 26! E
também tinha na LUX!!"...
- "Oh Carlos, ainda para mais com
estas rodas (29)... tens que te actualizar".
Voltamos ao encontro dos restantes, e
continuamos a subir! Uns sigle traks fantásticos e com algumas passagens
obrigatoriamente a mão. Passamos por cima da A23, à entrada
dos tuneis, em direcção a Alpedrinha, no único abastecimento, estávamos 2
grupos.
Até aqui a concentração do VITARGO
ELECTROLYTE e umas dentadas numas barras marcavam-me 155mg/dL de glicémia. Comi
banana e trouxe outra, sandes mistas foram duas, sumo a acompanhar e houve uns
valentes que fizeram prova de tintos. Uma garrafa tinha borras e outro serviu
para "queimar" uma roseira. Não saímos de lá sem ser aberta e
provada, uma terceira garrafa. Dizem que aquele, sim, estava bom!!!
A subida continuou por mais uns
quilómetros a compensar com as paisagens. Já estávamos perto da antenas da
Cortiçada quando começamos a descida rumo a estação de Vale de Prazeres e
demais povoações.
O cansaço já se fazia notar em alguns
companheiros mas a camaradagem neste pessoal é coisa séria, ninguém fica para
trás, nem que vá com GEL, dizia o Mike para o Cli! Algumas cerejas foram
colhidas, muitos repetimos em várias árvores, se o Pinto soubesse, não nos deixava
comer o almoço!
Passamos por uma barragem de nome
Cabrão, concluindo na Lardosa. Os banhos “queimavam” da impressão do
nosso corpo quente com a diferença da temperatura da água. O almoço estava
divinal. O convívio absolutamente fantástico.
A minha glicémia esteve bastante
controlada - não parei por hipo - penso que contribuiu a concentração do
Vitargo, associado a um andamento “leve”...
Pedaladas bOas,
Casf

Good cycling,
Meteorology
indicated some rain but the sun took his revenge. My fasting blood glucose was very
well, 146mg/dL, I reduced basal and fast insulin, in the proportions, by the
effort I would expend (I remember there are no rules, understanding our
diabetes is a matter of years and training, see the example of blue O Rider,
Pedro Felício on 120km Porto Covo-Alvalade-Porto Covo MTB Event, this weekend
in Facebook).
With almost
all of us on briefing time, Pinto Infante warning to possible occurrences,
leaving the groups in the scheduled order. I went with António Cabaço, Valério,
and Filipe Salvado.
As is widely
known, this GPS guided tour, gathering of groups is consistent and mutual
provoked as well, it's a good thing in mountain biking. Pinto, as
always, surprises us on this traks, this year he uphill abused, Castelo Novo,
Gardunha Mountain...
After Old
Bridge, on the way to Alpedrinha, after a photo, I had the normal workshop - patching
the inner tube, after warning, António Cabaço I came in my help. He was
outraged, even worse when confirms that I still have "Guterres time"
patches - I quote - I even apologized with the holes from latest events, but
had no excuses...
- "Tubeless
and CO2, you have to update"!!!
- "But
I've on my 26! And also I had on the LUX!"...
- "Oh
Carlos, even more with these wheels (29)... you must upgrade yourself."
We catch the
others guys and continue rising! Some fantastic single tracks some needed passages
by hand. We passed over the A23 highway on the tunnels entrance, to Alpedrinha
for the single supply, we were 2 groups.
Till here the
VITARGO ELECTROLYTE concentration and some cereal bars toothed bytes marked
155mg/dL of blood glucose. I ate banana, brought another one, two ham/cheese
sandwiches, joined with orange juice and there were a mighty riders they did a “reds”
tastes. One bottle had lees, other served to "burn" a rosebush. We
didn't left before opened and verify a third bottle. They say, that one, it was
really good!!
We continued
climbing for a few more kilometres, returning the landscapes offsets. We were closed
to Cortiçada antennas when we started the descent to Vale de Prazeres train
station and several villages.
Tiredness
was already sited in some riders, but friendship/solidarity on this staff is
really serious, no one is left behind, "you want some HC GEL?!", said
Mike for Cli! Some cherries were harvested, many repeated on several trees, if
Pinto knew, would not let us eat the lunch! We went through a dam
named Cabrão (I will not translate), finishing in Lardosa.
Baths
"burning" in the hot body with water temperature difference. The
lunch was divine. The convivial absolutely fantastic.
My blood
glucose was quite controlled - not stopped by hypo - I think that contributed
was from Vitargo concentration, associated with an "light" ongoing.
Cycling good,
casf

II Trilhos do Lince - Penamacor
Boas pedaladas,
Esta prova começou
muito antes da data propriamente dita, em 2012, acompanhado fizemos 99km!!!,
passava por Espanha, subia à Serra da Malcata e voltávamos a descer para
Penamacor, com a possibilidade de ver um Lince Ibérico!!! Este ano, dada a
fraca aderência aos 85km, recebemos um mail informativo, que esta distância não
se realizava - desalento e alivio.
Glicemia fantástica
de manhã, 126mg/dL, reduzo as unidades de rápida e basal, esta ultima é a chave
para um dia tranquilo e as demais horas. Estava o tão anunciado frio e as
rajadas, prolongavam essa impressão. Levantei o saco com tudo o que me
pertencia (adorei o conteúdo, em casa mais ainda!).
No aquecimento
cheguei à fala com um amigo recente que se prolongou durante o briefing, até
nos "obrigarem" a seguir, já tinham dado a partida! Fomos juntos
algum tempo, infelizmente para mim, até das questões técnicas se falou. Posso
afirmar que, depois deste pormenor, que ultimamente tenho com os furos, notei
algo mole lá atrás... Íamos pelo km 8, perguntei-lhe isso porque também não
tinha GPS, algo com o botão “ON”!!! Confirmei, mais uma prova mais um furo!
Segui ao ritmo possível: parar, confirma, enche e torna a encher!
Não fiquei por aí.
Reconhecendo o local, estávamos a chegar ao 1º abastecimento, no Parque de
Campismo do Freixial, Águas - Penamacor (era o acampamento final das minhas atividades
escotistas), meto as mãos aos bolsos, não, não tinha o leitor de glicémia!!!
Passei a ter de gerir tudo com mais atenção. Deu-me a impressão de estar com um
valor alto... O VITARGO ELECTROLYTE estava "consistente" e preenchi
com H2O, comi uma banana, laranja, uma sandes de fiambre e agarrei 2 barras de
cereais. O pneu… depois de mais umas "bombadas" parecia aguentar-se.
Os espanhóis da Serra
da Gata, marcam forte presença nesta prova e saí "acompanhado".
Durante uns bons quilómetros fui parando para encher a “minha sina”, ladeamos
ribeiras, fui comendo as barras de cereais e umas bolachas, passamos pelo 2º
abastecimento (só líquidos, numa estrada “colada” com Espanha onde havia assistência
técnica, mas comigo estava tudo bem!!!), passamos por pontes, fizemos algumas
subidas e os espanhóis desapareceram… tive de encher o pneu!
Tenho uma ligeira
resistência à lama (deve ser do equipamento quase branco), mas neste passeio
serviu-me de lição. Por me desviar - "contente e feliz” - fui parar a uma
subida, subi e continuei a subir, pensando sempre que estava no caminho certo,
até um cruzamento bastante largo. Se já não via indicações nenhumas há algum
tempo, ali não havia mesmo nada (de tão bem marcado que estava: fitas, setas e
cortes de caminho)! Desci quase tudo até encontrar dois raiders, mas não os
demovi do que estava já convencido, e assim, "mostrei-lhes" o caminho
até lá acima. Conclusão, ligamos à Organização, era para descer. É que foi ver
a CF SLX 29 à procura das "fitas"!!!
Lá estava a lama, e
tinha de lá passar, depressa chegam o carro, moto 4 e a bike vassoura. Passamos
a 4 elementos e fomos direção ao 3º abastecimento. Consegui distanciar-me e
numa descida antes do 3º abastecimento, cruzei-me com um bâmbi - os do rabo
branco - saltou à minha frente no trilho, de um lado para o outro - quase ao
estilo Cape Epic!!!
Desse abastecimento,
comi na base da gestão; meio copo de sumo com uma sandes de queijo, fruta, uma barra
e água. Saí com um avanço de 5 min, se tanto, e depressa fui apanhado, faltavam
20km para a meta. Descobri o que originou os últimos furos e com a ajuda da
Organização reparamos, de vez, essa questão. Durante esses quilómetros fui
recuperando algumas posições, numas transações de subidas consecutivas, ajudado
pelo meu peso e esta roda 29.
Cheguei bem, sem
sintomas de hipo, durante todo o percurso. Devo ter realizado uns 60km... A insulina basal - efeito 24h - é fundamental neste tipo de atividade
- aeróbico - havendo um controlo nos valores durante a atividade, é fundamental
o conhecimento das reações corporais depois dessa atividade para não se
registarem episódios de hipo e por consequência, colocando menos insulina,
evitar as hiperglicemias.
Ao almoço tinha 116mg/dL.
Ao almoço tinha 116mg/dL.
Dos 46 cheguei em 38
com 4:38:20h
Pedaladas boas,

Good cycling,
This event started before the date itself, in 2012, we did 99km!! Passed through Spain, went up to Malcata Mountain and cycling back to Penamacor, with the possibility to seeing a lynx!! This year, due to poor adherence to 85km, we received an informative email, this distance it was not in - relief and despair.
My fasting blood glucose was 126mg/dL, I reduce the fast and basal insulin units, the basal is the key to a “peaceful” day and the remaining hours. It was the announced cold temperature with blasts, lengthen that impression. I lifted the bag with everything that belonged to me (loved the content, at home, even more!).
When heating I talking with a recently friend, during all briefing time, till they "oblige" us to follow, had already given the started! We've been together for a while, unfortunately for me, we also speak about technical issues. I can say, after this detail, that lately I have with holes, I noticed something soft on the back... 8km were going, I asked him, also because I didn't have GPS, something with the "ON" button!! Confirmed, another event, one more hole! I follow on the possible pace: stop, confirm, fills and refills!
It was not finish! Recognizing the place, we were coming to 1st supply zone, Freixial Camping Park, Águas - Penamacor (was the final Scout camping activities every year), I put my hands into my pockets, no, no blood glucose meter!!! I started having to manage everything much more carefully. I had the impression of being in a high value... The VITARGO ELECTROLYTE was "consistent" and I filled with H2O, ate a banana, orange, a ham sandwich and grabbed two cereals bars. The tire... after a few more "pumped" seemed to hold up.
The Spanish’s from Gata Sierra mark strong presence in this event and we leave "together". For a good kilometer was stopping to fill "my fate", pass nearly streams, I ate cereals bars and some cookies, we passed the 2nd supply (only liquids, on a road "merged" to Spain, where there were technical assistance, but for me was everything okay!), passed through bridges, made some ascents and the Spanish’s disappeared ... I had to fill the tire!
I have a slight resistance to mud (should be from the almost white equipment), but on this event should be a lesson to me. Why I turn away - "happy" - I ended up in a climb, I climb and continued to rise, always thinking I was on the right path till a rather wide intersection. If I haven't seen any indications for some time, there, wasn't nothing (and was well marked: ribbons, arrows and cut way)! I went down almost everything, till find two raiders, but I didn’t demote from what I was already convinced, and so, I "showed them" the way up. Conclusion, we call the Organization, it was to descend. I put my 29 CF SLX looking of "tapes"!!!

Conclusion, we call the Organization, it was to descend. I put my 29 CF SLX looking of "tapes"!!!
There was the mud, and I had to spend though, quickly reach the car, motorbike
and the bike broom. We went to 4 elements and headed toward the 3rd supply
zone. I could went away and before I descent to the 3rd supply, I cross with a
Bambi - white tail - it jumped in front of me on the trail, from one side to
another - almost Cape Epic style!
From that supply, I ate on a
management basis; half a glass of juice with a cheese sandwich, fruit, a bar
and water. I left with a lead of 5 minutes, and quickly got caught, lacked 20km
to the finish line. I discovered which led the last holes and with the
Organization help we repaired this issue. During these miles was recovering
some positions, on some consecutive rises transactions, helped by my weight and
this 29 wheel.
I finished well, without hypo symptoms, all the way. Probably I did
around 60km... The basal insulin - 24h effect - is critical in this type of
activity - aerobic - having your values controlled during the activity, is
fundamental the knowledge of your body reactions after activity, avoid hypo
episodes, and therefore, putting less insulin, avoid hyperglycemia.
At lunch
time I had 116mg/dL.
From 46 riders I finish 38 with 4:38:20h
Cycling good,
casf
