      Me, about 10 ft. The there is a wall in the way and I have no option but to turn back. Given a completely free path, I suppose one could go around and around the Earth going always East, never West. Couldn’t do the same for North and South though…

      I agree with Tom (except that my wall’s a bit further away).

      You’d probably stop when you got to some better weather.
