A solid standard for 40K, (24.85 miles) the bike distance on bike leg of an Olympic Triathlon is 1 hour. So based on my experience, any recreational cyclist would have no problem as long as the course is not up some mountain. I only can see some fatty or old arthritic on huffy or beach cruiser not being able to do it.
USA age breakdown:
0-14 18.37% --- 3% from this group.
15-24 13.14% --- 10% from this group.
25-54 39.10% --- 25% from this group
55-64 12.75% --- 4% from this group
65+ 16.63% --- 2% from this group
A month of easy bike training and I'd say 44% of the USA population could achieve this.
