That's rough buddy. Wishing you either better road planning in the future or a move to a nicer town, biking should be accessible to everyone (even if you're not in shape, with modern ebikes it's easier than ever to get out and move for relatively cheap)
Ive been considering trying to save up for an ebike to use for the purposes of getting into shape. I'm too damn fat anymore to pedal myself up a hill (and it's nothing but hills here), but if I could get a bike to take to some of the bike paths in a nearby city, maybe I could slowly work up to it and use the motor when I just can't. That, or a stationary bike until I can make it to the point of being able to do it outside. Lol.
Iunno, I just know I loved riding back in the day, and I'd like to not keel over
I recommend something like this: https://lectricebikes.com/collections/ebikes/products/xp-black
More than enough range for a day's riding around the city, on the cheap end but still reliable, and most importantly folds up to fit in your car alongside anything you might pick up along the way. Maybe look for used ones too, they're fairly common and you might get a good deal vs. new.
Ebikes are actually fantastic for exercise, even more so than acoustic bikes. The biggest thing it does is erase hills for you so you don't exhaust yourself, and they're just plain fun.
