Preparation

In preparation for my cycle I started an automation to prepare my body for the impending exercise. This automation reduces my basal insulin ( as well as scale the rest of my management metrics) by 30% and set a temporary target (TT) of 7mmol/l. AAPS will not allow me to automate a profile % shift of more than 30%, so I reduced the profile a further 5% manually in AAPS an hour before the ride.

Exercise Metrics:

Blood Glucose:

Interestingly, AAPS stopped basal for a long period and allowed the IOB to runs its course.

Outcome:

My blood glucose held quite steady despite a mixture of anaerobic and aerobic levels of activity and so I didn’t need to consume any carbohydrates. Hopefully future attempts are as successful as this one.
