Able and Baker, a CPA firm. In the sales contract, he agrees that he will refrain
from practicing accounting anywhere within a 20-mile radius of Redwood City for
a period of two years. However, on weekends he returns to his house in Redwood

portion, which is the time provision, because the two-year period is too long.
