First ride today on my first road bike (been a mountain biker until now). Averaged 13mph on a rolling route with a couple of sharp climbs. I'm quite pleased with that considering I'm still learning the bike, how to use the gears, ratios etc. I also expect it is going to take me a while to get faster.
Over rough terrain, the average walking speed can drop to 2.5 miles per hour. Climbing and descending hills can significantly slow down a walker. For example, walking 10 miles over flat terrain is estimated to take the average person 4 hours. However, walking the same distance up and down a 1640-foot-high hill increases the estimated walking time to 5 hours and 10 minutes.
