I rode a bicycle 120 miles a few years back just because I felt like it one day. I’m probably not the best just for what’s considered “reasonable”
That said, it really is the joke/meme “Americans think 100 years is a long time, Europeans think 100 miles is a long distance”
Personally, I feel like if I’m more than 3 miles away, I’m not local. I may be “from the area” but I’m not “a local”
Most people I know wouldn’t consider 50 miles to be “close” though in terms of “can I pop over for a quick trip or do I need to plan my day around it”
As for car rides, like… If I’m driving I don’t mind so much because I’m occupied by trying not to die, but as a passenger anything over 5 minutes is not a “quick trip”
