Unexpected Moments in the Desert

Last week we completed a 6 day tour from the North of Israel to the Central Negev with a group of fundraisers from the United Jewish Israel Appeal in Manchester. Our staff was in charge of all logistics for the ride with 50 participants divided into two pelotons.

As always, our focus was on providing our clients with unbeatable  service with a high premium on customer satisfaction; and we were very grateful for the great reviews and feedback we got from the participants.

The tour took us around the Sea of Galilee, to Mt Gilboa, the Jordan Valley and along the coast of the Dead Sea. On the last day of the ride we climbed a spectacular ascent in the Negev called Ma’ale Akrabim (The Scorpions Ascent).

Since it was the 11th of November, we marked the British Remembrance day at the top of this hill with a moment of silence. Together, Israelis and Brits of the bike, we stood and remembered those who had lost their lives in the name of their homeland. The tranquility of the desert and the feeling of comradeship turned that into a very moving moment for us all.
