No, bikes are competitive up to 8-10 miles in city traffic. And if traffic is especially bad for even longer distances.
I know it’s only anecdotal, but my 5 mile commute is the same by bike or car, 15-17 minutes depending on traffic.
On the other hand the 25 mile ride to a friend’s house takes 90 minutes by bike compared to the 30 it takes by car on the highway.
Makes sense to me, the last time I did a long bike ride was over a decade ago. With my lack of cardio even a handful of miles sounds daunting.
Get an ebike to work your way back up. Start with full assist and you’ll get some stamina pretty quick
