Campaigning Cyclists Reach Goal With Help Of Temperature Controlled Medical Transporter

Chiara Ricciardi and Riccardo Rocchi bicycled almost 11,000 miles from Cesena, Italy to Singapore in their effort called For a Piece of Cake. Chiara has type 1 diabetes and, while their ride seems like a difficult endeavor to any of us, Chiara’s added health obstacle caused her to depend on the rugged and reliable Crēdo ProMed™ container strapped to her bike storing her insulin for a year, which was a lifeline to her goal.

Chiara noted that during the trip, she was only using 60% of the daily amount of insulin she was injecting before leaving Italy. The regular cycling drastically reduced from 45/50 units per day to 20/30 units!
