walking or riding a bike 2.3 miles???

X

in August i am moving to Austin to go to college, but since i dont have enough credits to go to the University so i will be attending a community college which is around 2.3 miles (according to mapquest) from where i am staying, and around .8 miles to the Universty , well the center of it (according to Google Maps)


anyways i will be going through the university to get the community college (2.3 miles, according to mapquest), instead of drving and taking the freeway to the college, which is a little bit faster (2.68 according to mapquest)

i want do it b/c where i currently live, Houston, the community college is a 30 minute DRIVE, and it takes up a lot of my gas so i have to refill every week

instead of driving there i want to walk or ride my bike there
should i do it??
whats the travel time walking?
whats the travel time riding a bike?

driving time is 6 minutes

*** i also want to do it so i can get in shape, since i am 5'11 and weigh 185****
the weather is perfect it could reach 102 and it would not feel hot, as to where in Houston it could be 94 and the heat would feel unbearable due to the humidity

Answer
I'd definitely ride a bike 2.3 miles. It's great exercise! And it's a whole lot quicker than walking.

PS: Go green! Yaaay!

How long does it take to walk a mile?

Think abou

Not fast exercise speed like people do really fast but a normal speed like you're walking ringer somewhere.
