<For Road Cyclists Only> What is your average mph?

On a ride atleast 20 miles. What are the ride conditions (inclines, declines, mostly flat.....windy? frequent stops?) and what is your bike set-up? How long have you been riding? Do you compete? Complete rider profile would be appreciated (age, sex, height and weight, experience, CAT 5,4,3,2,1 or PRO?)

Well, let's see. I've been riding all my life. I'm 52.
I can average about 20 m.p.h. over a closed 60 mile course.
Rolling hills in southeast Arizona.
I don't race or belong to a club. I rarely ride with a group
(although I will ride Tour De Tucson again this year.
I ride a '96 Bianchi- steel frame, Campy gruppo, Campy
wheels. Nothing special, and a bit heavy, but very
comfortable. I tend to push a big gear, so I ride a 52
up front and the smallest available cogset in back.
23-12 I think.
I feel like I can still hang with the average younger rider,
but I'm not even close to a fast CAT rider.
I also mountain bike regularly.

You don't want much do you ?
