I don't really pay attention to speed or average speed on my current commute, where the lockup bike has no computer and the whole commute is interrupted with a bus trip

When I was doing a 38mi r/t commute, I would average 13-16mph depending on the time of year. Early Spring, fresh out of winter? 13. Middle to end of summer? 16. But that particular commute had some hills and I was always faster heading in than coming home, so a 19 mi o/w to work avg would be something like 18mph, but 14mph on the way home on a good day when I was in shape.

And I'd consider that a moderate speed for me. I could sight-see all day long at 12mph, I think the fastest o/w to work time I ever logged was 20mph... peak season, running late...
