SHRED.SAFE changes that
The problem

Generic advice
doesn't cut it on trail.

Most diabetes apps weren't built for someone pinning a berm at 40km/h with adrenaline, trail fatigue and remote terrain in the mix.

⚡
DH affects BG differently
High-adrenaline riding can affect blood glucose in unpredictable ways — spikes, drops, or delayed changes — unlike steady aerobic cycling. Generic advice doesn't account for this.
🌲
You're remote
A hypo on a chairlift or in a forest is not the same as a hypo at the gym. Distance from help changes everything.
🎭
Symptoms get blurred
Adrenaline can make hypo symptoms harder to recognise — shaking, sweating and confusion can overlap with normal ride stress. That's a dangerous overlap.
📱
Apps aren't built for you
Dexcom, mySugr, Libre — brilliant tools. Zero context for trail type, intensity, or what happens to your BG after a DH run.
🚵

"I'm Type 2 diabetic and I downhill mountain bike. I couldn't find a single tool that understood both. Every app assumed I was jogging, not sending it on a black run. So I decided to build what I needed — and share it with everyone else in the same position."
