"Setting up Loop is like going skydiving for the first time. You may not know how to do it, or what to expect, but you don't have to because you are guided through the process from start to finish."

Learn to Loop with Erik!
Hey there,
It's a lot. I know. I was there.
I’m Erik and I was sitting in your seat not too long ago. Loop is intimidating but not if you've got a guide.
My family is pretty passionate about this community since we have been a part of it since 1940 - I inherited this disease over ten years ago.
Loop and I biked over 1,000 miles with Annalisa van den Bergh from Los Angeles, California out to Sante Fe, New Mexico; Loop made it to the peak of the Chilkoot Pass alongside 20 other T1Ds in The Yukon; Loop is in my Rhone running shorts for NYC marathon training with Beyond Type 1; Loop keeps me steady while training with Scott Johnson for the JDRF 100 mile Death Valley Ride. Trust me - we can use it for almost any situation you throw at it.
So many families I meet want to set up this system but cannot make it through the documentation. That is why this course exists - you get a guide.
My passion for this system comes from the fact that I truly believe in it. Loop is the only system that matches me. It's unique enough to match you, too. That is why I believe in Loop.
You have a lifetime to make a decision. There's no time like now.
Let's Explore,
