Convert between cycling distance, time and average speed in one step.

Formula
Average speed equals distance divided by time in hours.
How it works
Distance divided by time gives the average, including any slower sections. It says nothing about top speed or effort on hills.
FAQs
Why is my average lower than my cruising speed?
Stops, junctions and hills all drag the average down.
Does wind matter?
A lot. Headwinds cost more time than tailwinds save.
Can I use miles?
Convert miles to kilometres first (1 mile = 1.609 km).
