12-22-2018 Ride

Ride with Oren, leaving from by the coffee shop near Mishmar HaSharon.  We headed a little bit south first until we could turn onto Hwy 4 and start riding north.  At some point, we met up with Rotem, and not too long after that I got a flat.  While fixing it, I think I damaged the inner tube and ended up having to use my back-up.  Frustrating!  I was feeling okay and had a couple of decent stretches where I pushed my pace.  We rode out to the coffee shop by Zichron Yaakov and stopped for a break.  As I remember, it was a little cool but not raining.  On the way back, I got out in front and missed the turnoff where Rotem headed home.  I waited for Oren to catch up, then he and I put in a good pace to get back to the cars, so I wouldn't be too late for church.

Common looping ride, heading out Ben Zvi and the 44 all the way to the 40, then turning north and riding up to the 461.  Back to the 412, where I turned to reconnect to the 44 and ride home.  Wind was generally favorable for this ride, more brisk later in the ride when it helped push me back home.

Avg speed = 17.5 mph. Total mileage = 30.8 mi
Total elevation gain = 690'

Posted long after the ride.  First ride after returning from our trip back to San Diego.  Over to Ben Zvi, then down the 44 to the 412, turning right and riding over to the 4311, which took me down to Palmahim, a great place to stop, admire the sea, and then turn around.  Retraced my route from there.

Avg speed = 16.7 mph. Total mileage = 32.2 mi

Total elevation gain = 1220'

Posted long after the ride.  Looks like a modified time trial route, leaving from the Radisson where we were staying while in town.  Not sure if anybody else joined on this ride.    Over to W Bernardo Dr, taking it down to Duenda Rd.  From there, it was the time trial route back to the starting point.

Avg speed = 15.9 mph. Total mileage = 16.9 mi

Total elevation gain = 940'
