Michael Lewis has already known quite a few physical challenges in his life and often found himself in complex situations, but it seems that nothing prepared him for entering Bnei Brak with his private motorcycle during Rosh Hashanah.
In a Q&A session Lewis held Tuesday night with his Instagram followers, he was asked about the issue by a user who spotted him driving through the city streets, leading Lewis to share the sequence of events.

"Was that you on a holiday in Bnei Brak on the motorcycle with your dog?" one user asked. "Yes! Beautiful! Wow, that's a great scene what was there! Sorry first of all if anyone was hurt by me," Lewis said, addressing residents who may have encountered him. "I accidentally entered Bnei Brak. I was looking for a gas station. At the station I was at it said 'in a few minutes the service will be back to normal'. It was at the end of the holiday. I waited, and nothing happens," he said.
"I aimed Waze at the nearest gas station, and the app took me into Bnei Brak. I didn't think about things like holidays, Shabbat and stuff, sorry, and suddenly I found myself entering the city, and I took in thousands of people on the streets," he elaborated on the experience. "I was riding there with Joss (Lewis' dog) in the front seat. Luckily, just because Joss was on the motorcycle, they didn't kill me. But the truth is that it was great, when I walked through the streets, everyone smiled at me when they saw Joss, I was surprised."
