I'm 24 and in pretty good shape... I used to hit the gym a few times a week until I broke my hand at the end of last summer... then I kinda lost motivation because i couldn't even pull off a chinup... i finally got some strength back after a couple months of healing, but, i still had lost motivation because i was back to lifting like 50% of what I was lifting before I broke my hand...
I want to start hitting the gym again, but, I only really do strength-training... so I wanted some form of cardio anyways... and this bike is perfect for that.
and like the other guy said... that was MAX speed... aint no way i got the endurance to stay at that speed for more than a few seconds... not yet anyways

I hate to bring you down, but are you sure the computer is right? It might be set too far the other way. 25mph is pretty fast for a new guy, unless you are young and very strong.
The best way to check you computer is to ride a 10 mile route that you have checked with your car odometer. If you cycle computer reads about the same distance, then you can be proud.
