Cycling should be fun. Don't worry about average speeds or distance too much. Have fun and see what works the best for you. Find your sweet spot - best gearing and speed, and enjoy your ride!
I've read the same advice written by others. What is curious to me is that those giving such advice know their distance and speed.
Some folks cycle to lose weight or gain health. Sometimes those same folks enjoy it so much that it becomes much more than simply exercise, sometimes not.
