ABOUT How long does it take the AVERAGE bycycle rider to travel 3 miles?

Question

if you need something to work with, assume they travel at 18 mph... while you're at it, what's the average speed really?

Answer 1

10 minutes. I live 3 miles from the university I attend, I am 46 and it takes me 15 minutes (lots of hills plus I'm a smidge old) So I'm thinking the average younger more in shape person ten minutes.

Answer 2

8 min.

Answer 3

12 mph is 5 minute miles.  3 x 5 minutes = 15 minutes.

Answer 4

10 minutes, but I doubt 18 mph is average.  Maybe 12-15
