Josie Glausiusz is a journalist living in Israel.
Last October, on Yom Kippur, my 11-year-old son, a keen cyclist, clipped on his helmet and biked to synagogue with my husband.
Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, is also something of a cycling holiday in Israel. With the roads empty of cars, children on bicycles, tricycles and scooters glide gloriously down the middle of the street right into the evening, a rare gift in a traffic-choked country.
