Ride with Oren and, later, Rotem, starting from usual spot in Netanya. Oren wasn't feeling great, so we scaled back the ride and his effort. We rode following the normal route, to a coffee shop in Mishmar HaSharon, met Rotem, then doubled back on Hwy 4 to the 5711, following it to Haniel and then through some surface streets to the 57, which we took east until we turned onto the 5714. I had been on these roads before, going the other direction. We got to the 5803 and used it to get to the 581 to ride back to Hwy 4. From there, it was back to the coffee shop for a break and then back to the starting point following the usual route. Ride was fairly tame. While I was riding with the others, I pushed my pace a couple of times to stretch out and get more of a workout.
