09-30-2017 Ride

Posted long after this ride.  Solo ride on Yom Kippur, taking advantage of the absence of much traffic on the highways.  Headed out from Andromeda onto Yefet St.  Down through neighborhoods, generally heading southeast, until I got to Holon, where the street I was on eventually got me to Hwy 4.  Headed south all the way to the 41, where I headed west and rode into Ashdod.  I rode down by the port and then did a general loop through the city before getting back to the 41 and heading east.  Back up Hwy 4 to the Ayalon, which I took up to Kibbutz Galuyot to ride back into Yafo, generally following coastal roads to get back to the starting point.  I think this was the only time I rode to Ashdod and back while staying in Israel.  Made pretty good time, but I remember that on Hwy 4 the wind was working against me on the way down and with me on the return route.

Avg speed = 16.8 mph. Total mileage = 48.8 mi
Total elevation gain = 1280'
