08-25-2018 Ride

Ride from Netanya starting point with Oren and Slavik.  Before I started with them, I was riding around slowly and got stopped unexpectedly at a curb, falling over pretty heavily on my hip.  I also found out later that I bent the hangar for my rear derailleur, which was a real bummer.  Switching gears on this ride was messy, but I was lucky because the course was fairly flat and I didn't have to switch a lot.  We headed out of the neighborhood the normal way and got onto Hwy 4 going north.  Up to the 581, where we turned right and followed this road to the 5803, again roads that we have ridden before.  I was generally riding with the others, not pushing the pace.  We turned right onto the 5714 and rode it south to the 57, then heading back into Netanya.  To put a few extra km on the ride, we rode around this little loop in a wooded section before exiting and stopping to get coffee.  A small ride back to the car, where Oren offered to take my bike to his mechanic and get the frame looked at.  All in all, not my brightest day.

Avg speed = 15 mph. Total mileage = 32.5 mi
Avg heartrate = 125 bpm
