I did a 22 mile race in New Orleans on a cheap road bike, and I was gassed.
As far as the cardio goes, I can get as good of a workout or better on my cycle, and it's much more fun to do. Picking up the girlfriend a Vilano 21 speed so we can cruise together, but riding a bike in town as fast as cars > *
