If you could not go more than 2km from your home.

I can just get to Saltaire, but also have woods with bike trails, private traffic free roads, a park, the canal towpath, the river bank and a pile of hilly back roads for a work out.

It is almost impossible to get even 1 metre away from people coming the other way (or when overtaking slowcoaches) on many towpaths! (I don't know how wide your local path is.)

Technically I could keep within 2km of home and keeping on cycle paths without going off the estate. The only problem with that is, so is everyone else, albeit more walkers than cyclists. Even in normal times I only use part of a cycle lane and that has often got people wandering (I won`t use the word walking) in them, too engrossed in their phones to be aware of cyclists who might actually be on the cycle path. It is easier to keep a distance by going out into the country as long as villagers don`t tell me to go home.

Yes, especially when they've got dogs with them, even more so if the dogs are on those lovely extendable leads!

The extendable leads that can be like a finishing line when stretched across the road as I had once !

Half of my 2km radius circle is covered by sea at high tide, could I get a 4km radius to compensate please?

Snap.

However, with the sea only 150 metre from our house, and with the current lack of work commute, this means we can take our dog for a lovely walk at 5.00pm when the beach is completely empty. ....weyhey, only half an hour to go.....

How would you get home...?

The Peak District National Park.....just

I was expecting some one to point out that the area of a 4km radius circle is more than twice the area of a 2km radius circle, but must admit you have scuppered the whole idea.

Can't believe this only got 1 like.

3 parks totally different to each other . Shops including a Polish deli no one has clocked on to so the line up waiting to get into Tesco a316 i plan to start doing laps on as the traffic is so low and Richmond park is closed .

I do have the 2KM restriction.

I am fortunate enough to live on the threshold of some amazing cycling country if I go westwards towards the mountains, lakes and sea but it is all out of reach to me now. Not too much locally for cycling within my 2 KM limit but there are some nice little walks and wooded areas that I have been using a lot and also pretty decent park which I worried would be too crowded but seemed to be empty this evening. I might take the Brompton out tomorrow and do leisurely lap of the park perimeter road (and see how many times I can repeat it without getting bored!).
