Hi,

I am thinking of buying a road bike to commute to work every day.

Good for you!

Would 15 miles each way be too far?

No.

I am in pretty good shape but new to biking.

About how long would it take?

That depends on how many hills and intersections are on your route.

How fast (average speed) can the average beginner go on a road bike?


12 mph is reasonable.
