The annual Israel Ride, one of the most popular long-distance bike rides in Israel, is co-sponsoring a Marin County Reunion Ride, open to current and past Israel Ride participants as well as local cyclists. Other co-sponsors include Hazon, the Jewish National Fund and Israel’s Arava Institute for Environmental Studies. The event takes place Sunday, May 1, with a route that traverses West Marin.
Daniel Katsin and Morris Flaum, two participants in the 2014 Israel Ride, are organizing the event. The Reunion Ride is considered a training event for the Israel Ride, which takes place this year
Nov. 8-15 from Jerusalem to Eilat. Funds raised through the ride benefit Hazon and the Arava Institute.
