Bike Ride-Day 1- Jerusalem to Be'er Sheva

This day consisted of a nice downhill to start the ride.
I was 3/4 of the way down when I had a flat tire.  This was my first flat in 5 years of the ride.
It was expertly repaired by our mechanics, but it did put me behind the group.
It took until lunchtime to catch up with the Tzofim.

Here is a video from our first downhill:

After lunch I took a side tour to Sderot and the JNF Indoor Playground.  This place was built for children to go to when their is an air raid.  Sderot is only 800 meters from Gaza.
This playground is fortified as bomb shelter, and provides safe place parents can leave their children when they go off to work.

Attached are some photos from the visit.
