NEW YORK (MarketWatch) â U.S. stock markets are closed on Thanksgiving. But the market has another reason to be thankful on Friday. Since 1992, stock exchanges have adhered to an abbreviated trading schedule the Friday following Thanksgiving. The key driver for the truncated session, which this Friday sees the market wrap at 1 p.m. Eastern time, is the ghost-town trading atmosphere that typically follows Turkey Day.
It takes less than 30 minutes to ride a bike 5 miles at a leisurely pace in an urban area. Riding a bike faster can take less time.
All I can say is how long it takes me. I ride the same distance as you - 11 km each way. It takes me about 30 minutes each way after a month or so of riding. When I start riding in the spring it will take about 40 minutes. I have less of an elevation change though.
