Let's Ride Posted May 6, 2020 Share 33km route, should I dare trying to run it is the question... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fork-it Posted May 6, 2020 Share It may be interesting to share how far we can go while staying within the regulations. I can do approximately 33km if I follow the roads closest to my 5km radius. How do you add that radius overlay on the map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let's Ride Posted May 6, 2020 Share How do you add that radius overlay on the map? Just use the measure tool and find where the radius is. What I did. Fork-it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefmeister Posted May 6, 2020 Share Is everyone here sticking to the 5km radius? Too unfit to go any further. My ride takes me 26 km, 500 m elevation, with a choice of 5 trails to hit on my way back. Suppose I could add another 30 km if I wanted to ride on tar.

Suppose I could add another 30 km if I wanted to ride on tar. Yikes. I was doing 2 hours a day on the rollers during the crackdown, so I'm doing a 60-90km loop these days. Furthest point is about 30km outside the 5km radius. DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickjay007 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Checked my Flybys and this must be the biggest loop for sure: https://www.strava.com/activities/3406120132 not sure about the elapsed time either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch Posted May 6, 2020 Share You can run a full official marathon in 5km radius.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBritishTwit Posted May 6, 2020 Share Checked my Flybys and this must be the biggest loop for sure: https://www.strava.com/activities/3406120132 not sure about the elapsed time either It seems like the person got on an indoor trainer from the 3 hour mark as the elevation and location doesn't change. The 5 km radius however is nowhere near being met... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBritishTwit Posted May 6, 2020 Share 33km route, should I dare trying to run it is the question..You can use the below site to create a circle from your address to see what areas the circle covers: just put in the address, radius required and then click new circle. https://www.mapdevelopers.com/draw-circle-tool.php Fork-it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted May 6, 2020 Share depends what you define by 5km radius? https://www.strava.com/activities/3400023107#2692528940336519403 HeadDown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisF Posted May 6, 2020 Share Gatorskins or not getting the tire off is all about technique... - move the bead to the centre of the rim all the way around the circumference of the tire - the rim has a smaller circumference in the centre.- if the tire is really tight do this on both sides- in most cases the tire is now loose enough to slide off by hand, or 1 tire lever in an extreme situation. I actually did show him to de-bead both sides, get slack to one side, then use the tire lever ... It did help. But we just could not get more than 100 to 150mm off .... trying to unclip the next section the first would clip back ..... maybe the tire, maybe the rim, but this combination was certainly not easy. PS - used the exact same approach of debeading them removing when helping riders I did not want to damage the rim by "working" the lever sideways ..... Owner seemed more than happy at the prospect of walking home .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted May 6, 2020 Share You can use this as well. Drag to your address and then select 5km in toolbar https://2kmfromhome.com/za/index.html Jip, but is there a single program that shows the radius AND allows one to map the route ? I had the 5km screen on one side, and plotting in a different program ... PS - the idea is to then export the route to Garmin. (I was plotting inside Garmin Connect software) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTB-More Posted May 6, 2020 Share Did a 53km last Friday already when it opened and I stay inside the 5km RADIUS all the time. Did little extra in the middle closer to home and can easily do a 80 ish without reusing any tar Edited May 6, 2020 by MTB-More Duane_Bosch, Fork-it, Prince Albert Cycles and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not familiar with the name but if he can do 125kms during the exercise window then he is not in my league Vetplant and slickjay007 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
