Miles in one hour........

[the_mikey]

I went on a ride today, I thought I was doing well, I imagined my average speed might be 26km/h but I checked the computer at the end of the ride, 22km/h... So that's not far from 13mph.... (although to me it seemed most of the time I was actually moving I was doing 30km/h)

My average over the last few years is something like 22.4kph.... meaningless isn't it!

Just done a 71.25 miler with just over 3,000 ft of climbing at 16.5mph, on my regular 17 mile evening ride I am hitting the 20mph.

Sorry. I was mistaken. It's actually 21.9kph. Glad I've been able to confirm that for you all.

As road surfaces continue to deteriorate, I find my average dropping. Usually around 14 now.

 

[Fnaar]

Road bike, mostly hilly routes, 13-15 mph
MTB flatter (but not flat) routes 12-14 mph

 

[sabian92]

My average speed is about 6.4mph. Yes, I'm a fat bastard.

 

[peelywally]

could be anywere from 10 to maybe 18 ,




i can sprint when needed and get say 25mph then reach a hill and doddle up it at 6mph which affects my avg speed .

to get a good 1hour distance id choose the flattest cycle path /road i could , what a good idea for a thread actually .

Done 11 miles this evening on mtb along canal paths in 55 mins so about 12 mph which is quick for me being a 'big un' and the other day on the hybrid managed 15.6 miles in an hour, which again is good for me.
Great thread this btw
