Suwanee, Ga. — Team Type 1 and its sponsors will have a lot to offer fans Sunday at the team’s booth at the Health & Wellness Expo in Atlanta for the final stage of the Tour de Georgia presented by AT&T.

Team Type 1 is one of 15 teams competing in the seven-day, 600-mile race that ends with a circuit race around Centennial Olympic Park. The squad was founded in 2004 by racers Phil Southerland and Joe Eldridge to inspire people living with diabetes to take a proactive approach to managing their health and overcoming obstacles often associated with the condition.

Four of the 15 riders on the Team Type 1 professional squad – Phil Southerland, Joe Eldridge, Tim Hargrave and Fabio Calabria – have Type 1 diabetes. Calabria is racing in the Tour de Georgia and is sixth in the Best Young Rider (Under 25) competition.

Exhibiting for Team Type 1 will be team sponsors Dex 4, Nuun, OmniPod and the American Diabetes Association (ADA) Tour de Cure. The booth opens at noon, one hour before the start of the 62.7-mile (100.7 km) race that comprises 10 laps of a circuit through Downtown Atlanta.

Fans will have a chance to sample products, win prizes and get details about the purchase of official team apparel. There is even the opportunity to get a temporary “Team Type 1” tattoo.

Members of Team Type 1 who are not competing in the Tour de Georgia will be on hand throughout the afternoon to sign autographs and answer questions. Following the race, the riders who competed in the Tour de Georgia will participate in a free autograph session, beginning at approximately 4 p.m.
