Problem

Barney Schwinn notices that the odometer on his bicycle reads 14411441, a palindrome, because it reads the same forward and backward. After riding 44 more hours that day and 66 the next, he notices that the odometer shows another palindrome, 16611661. What was his average speed in miles per hour?
