Ride in the morning after a kinda late night the previous evening. So I didn't have a lot of sleep. I woke up to find I needed to fix a flat on my front tire. Urgh! Out Ben Zvi and the 44 to the 412, taking it through Rishon LeTsiyon, slowed by lights and some traffic, then Nes Ziona, same thing. I turned off left by HaMada St and connected to the 410 to get out to the 411, which I took over to the 40. I headed northeast here, feeling pretty good and having the benefit after crossing over the 431 of a slight downward slope for most of the rest of the ride. Feeling good enough to take the 40 to the Tayasim Junction, where I turned onto the 461 and headed back home the normal way, via the 412. I didn't go extremely fast on this part of the return, but my pace was steadily good.
Avg speed = 17.9 mph. Total mileage = 41.8 mi
