I could regularly beat city buses on 3-5 mile rides in the city. They have to stop all over the place and the routes between places are never direct.

But this greentext is probably made up anyway.

I beat it consistently on my 10 mile commute. In fact, on a crappy weather day (lots of snow), I barely missed the bus, so I caught up and rode it the rest of the way.

Buses aren't fast, but they are warm and dry. It takes ~20 min to get from the stop near my house and the transfer I'd take to work, which was ~6 miles (~10 km). That's ~18mph (~30km/h), which is doable on a bike. My whole commute took about 40min, 30 on a good wind day. Taking the bus with a transfer took about 45 min.
