Is there a certain amount a physically fit person should be able to bike?

1 Answer

Answer :

No, I mountain bike frequently and am in good physical shape but I have crappy endurance. It’s genetic, I’m a sprinter and have different muscle type than people who are good at endurance. I struggle with an 8 min mile but can still run a 100m in around 12 sec, a quarter mile under 60 sec. Typically though if I pace myself 15 miles out on the trail is a “good” ride. It varies for everyone.
