Team Type 2′s Arnold Will Celebrate 50th Birthday By Riding Cross Country

Betsy Arnold knew her husband, Bill, wanted to do something big for his 50th birthday. But she didn’t realize it would involve him pedaling his Orbea across the country as a member of Team Type 2.

“He always does bite off a big chunk, but he always manages to chew it,” Betsy told Lafayette Journal & Courier newspaper reporter Bob Culp.

Bill Arnold is one of eight members of Team Type 2, all of whom have Type 2 diabetes. This will be the team’s first competition in the Race Across America (RAAM).
