Biking time question?

[Brandy]

I went on a bike ride and I'm in the National Guard and I decided since I was out riding I might as well a few miles to get a workout. I got on map quest to check how far I went and it was 4.54 miles and I did it in about 45 to 50 minutes. What I was wondering is if that was good time for riding that far for the first time or if it wasn't good time.

5 Mph is not good. If you're young enough to be in the guard, you should be able to do double that. I can and I'm probably twice your age.

If it was uphill, you could beat lance armstrong. If it was flat, you did good. If it was downhill you suck. If it was all you did ok. And it depends on your age.

Are you sure that you measured the distance correctly. That works out to 6 mph which is really slow on a bicycle.
