If you could take a cycling vacation anywhere in the world, where would it be? Tuscany, the French Alps, Flanders, Sardinia, or Mallorca? Maybe a lesser known yet equally stunning destination such as Chiang Mai, Maui, or the Scottish Highlands? I’m privileged to say I’ve ridden in all those destinations and each provided an experience unique from one to the other. My most recent trip, a trip to Israel, was a place I never anticipated my bike taking me, but it happened, and I had no idea what to expect.
Below is a photo journal of my trip. Look for the entire story in an upcoming issue of Road Bike Action Magazine.
