We
are being mature. We've been doing this long enough to know that the most accurate answer is ... it depends.
Right now, your average speed ranges between 12 and 14 mph. I presume that since you're a new rider you're riding pretty much the same route all the time and that the weather conditions haven't differed that much. Is my presumption correct?
