Tal Galboa, 47, from Kibbutz Kfar Haruv in the southern Golan Heights, is the man who was killed this morning after being struck by a vehicle on Route 98, near the Magshimim Junction. Galboa, who was killed while riding his bicycle, was a triathlete who also competed in the 'Ironman' competition in the past. His coach Dan Alterman, one of the greatest triathletes in Israel's history, eulogized him in a heartbreaking post: "This morning, a little before 9, news broke about a cyclist who was killed in an accident at the Magshimim Junction. The first thing that came out of my mouth was: 'Wow... just let it not be Tal.' I sent you a message. You don't respond. Five minutes later I get a call, and in one moment I realize that the worst has happened."
