In reply to ClimberEd:
On the weekend I did a trip with a bunch of newbies. Our pace was reasonably solid. From my strava log:
Distance: 11.3km
Elevation: 1,284m
Elapsed Time: 5hrs
Moving Time: 2:14:05
I'm not sure about the accuracy of moving time as it seems very short, but we stopped for snacks and photos, etc.
Note it includes the descent
