agree that sounds OK for now. OP can try to keep track as he adds miles over the next few weeks & months. if that stays the same that would be just fine. I'm 60 & last weekend, rode a road bike, a little under 20 miles w/ an avrg of 13 mph. I've done better & hope to again, but I'm not stressing over it. my speed is my speed.
