I can keep up a 20+ mph pace without breaking a sweat on flat, and that's not even a road bike. The thing you have to remember with a bicycle is that all of your work is going into moving you forward, minus the typical loss of work through heat and frictive forces. Thus, cycling is an extremely efficient method of self-propelled transport, but you burn fewer calories per mile than anything else because of this efficiency.
