it's not distance, so much as time and exertion. 30 minutes at least per day. raise your heart rate enough. that varies with each individual.

A good cardio workout should consist of at least 20-30 minutes of continuous exercise at a moderate pace. If you are simply looking to get fit, time frame over distance is what you should focus on, upping the difficulty or time put into your cycling to improve.
