Hi and welcome all the above advice is spot on, as stated just build up your distances steadily forget about speed for the moment that will happen on it's own! Also as some one told me when I got back on the bike IT DOE,S NOT GET EASIER YOU JUST GET FASTER THATS ALL !

Once u get one long ride out the way 20-40 miles yr find your short trips very easy just take yr time don't get up
