Dang -
I had planned to go to town tomorrow and buy a new helmet and get the bike fixed and checked over. Now there are missiles falling in/on the town!
So I guess I'll just have to stay inside and do my new physical therapy excercises on the busted fingers and spend time in front of the mirror memorising my new beak.
Good thing I got that ride along the Border in *last* week!!!!
Hell yeah! :eek: I've been wondering how far removed or not you were from the current goings on. Take care, eh.
Hey there,
Take care, keep safe!!!
How far are you from the jordanian border??? (what's the name of your nearest town so i can look it up!!!)

The lbs is in Tiberias on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee
We are 9 km south of there - the name of our settlement is Kinneret which is a kibbutz (collective or commune ).
32 deg 42 min 51.54 sec North
35 deg 33 min 34.93 sec East
that is my actual house co-ordinates on Google Earth
OH!!! I know where you are without having to go to google earth!!!!
You just had to tell me the golan heights & i gotya!!! My dad spent time there on the Canadian UN contingent wayyyyyyy wayyyy back!!!

look to the bottom left, right hand side
Margo - Take care of yourself! Let's hope this is all resolved very soon so everyone over there can get back to their lives.
Good luck Margo. Very scary going on right now. Between what's going on there and the little scary dude in N. Korea (and the big scary dude in Washington DC), these are tough times.
Yeah - just where the Jordan River is flowing out . I am waving a big towelQuote:

Margo, even though I have family in Israel it's funny (well not funny haha) that when I saw the headlines first thing I think is "there's a TE gal there, hope she's ok"
Let's hope somehow there's peace soon.
Don't make me come down there and say "I don't care who hit who first, all of you, all sides just sit down, take a time out, kiss and make up. Have some chocolate, we all like chocolate, right?*"
*apology to the New Yorker cartoon
Margo,
Thinking of you with every news report. My heart aches that this level of hostilities has started up again. Stay safe and sane if you can, and know that we're all thinking of you here on TE.

OMG, how scary! Stay safe Margo...

Margo - everyone else has put it so well - just know I'm thinking about you - stay safe!
Maybe it's a good time to sink your new beak into a good book! Got any good ones lined up?
What a man!
The SO said lets go into town real early b4 things hot up,. So we load the bike and get to the lbs at like 9.15 am.
Have a chat to the couple, tell my crash story (in my inimitable style), a few laughs and buy a new helmet (giro). She gives me a purple aluminium water-bottle with their shop name on that they have just done and I say Oh where was that in June? and tell her about you all and the Secret Sisters (She was not in the shop the days I bought SS stuff for Susie and Patty)
Then we go to the bakery and the word goes out for people to get to the shelters. So we find DD (17) who is in a *cafe *:eek: (a chip off the old block- not :o )
and drive back safe and sound but bike-less in the interim .
Injuries healing, resting and waiting for Eurosport and Le Tour ...
Huge thanks and TE hugs for all your good wishes for *all* of us In The General Region
That's exactly it. Everyone. Glad you got at least some of your mission taken care of at the LBS Keep us posted. We're all around the world, trying to hold you all safe in our hearts. L.Quote:
