Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good average cycling speed?

Casual riders 15–19 km/h, regular commuters 20–25 km/h, fit road cyclists 27–32 km/h. Wind, elevation and stops matter more than fitness on short rides.

Why speed instead of pace?

Cyclists talk in speed (km/h) because bike computers display it live; runners use minutes-per-km. Same math, inverted.

Does this include stops?

Only if you enter elapsed time including stops — that gives your overall (moving + stopped) average, which is what Strava calls 'elapsed speed'.
