09-09-2018 Ride

Ride in the morning where I had to overcome the urge to lower the mileage from my original target of 50 mi.  Out Ben Zvi to the 44, turning onto the 424 to ride to Latrun.  This is a gradual 7 mi climb with one spot of downhill in it, not steep but steady.  Out to the 3, where I turned right and rode back to the 44.  By this time, I was committed to the distance, so to get more miles in I turned left and rode up and down to Kfar Uriyya before turning around.  On the way back on the 44, it took me just a little over an hour to return, with a favorable tailwind and legs that felt okay.  They were definitely tired at the end, worked out more than they had been in a while.

Avg speed = 17.3 mph. Total mileage = 52.0 mi
Avg heartrate = 140 bpm
Total elevation gain = 2070'
