Journal:
Had enough time before lunch to assemble my bike.
One of the bike mechanics checked it and said I did a good job.
After lunch I installed the RouteWerks front bag bracket and the top tube bag.
Went on a 1-mile test ride. The bike feels great!
Attended Israel Ride women-only meeting.
Attended Orientation meeting for all Israel Ride participants.
Very interesting talk about some of the behind-the-scenes communication with Gaza in the aftermath of October 7th by Daniel Shek, former Israeli Ambassador to France and current Arava Institute member of the Board of Directors.
