Cyclists from Canada, the USA, Australia and the UK joined Israeli disabled veterans and members of Israel’s national cycling team on a five-day magical adventure, Oct. 20-24, 2013. The journey began near Ashkelon and continued through the lush green hills of Jerusalem to spectacular views of the Mitzpe Ramon Crater and the rugged beauty of the Dead Sea.
Riding in Israel, meeting our Heroes, exploring Jerusalem, experiencing an interactive visit at an army base, wine tasting in a Bedouin tent and the closing dinner at Beit Halochem Tel Aviv made this year’s ride one of our best yet.
More than $300,000 was raised and will go towards the rehabilitative programs, including cycling at our Centres in Israel. Thank you to all our sponsors and cyclists!
