I averaged 28.67342 MPH. Luckily the grizzly gave up the chase pretty quickly so he wasn't able to catch up with me. I just wanted to know if my average speed was slow or not? I mean, I wasn't even tired after running away from the bear.

Does anyone else have any experiences with running away from an animal that wanted to eat you? How fast did you ride?
