nafula, it really is an individual thing. You really can't compare your mph to anyone elses. It is really only a tool to help us improve. I average about 11mph. I'm always suprised when I can get up to 20 - usually on an incline with a tail wind. This week I did some of the things the more experienced women suggested and my average is 13 right now. I do not think I'm a strong rider and I want to be stronger. So, I'm will to try some things out. There is talk about riding with A or B groups....I want to ride with the C group. If you love riding then do not worry about all of this talk of speed, just keep riding.
