I would base it on time. Need to almost go 2x on bike to equal jog. 1 hr bike ride = 30 minute jog

With cycling to running the ratio is actually closer to 3:1 so if you would rather cycle than run 3 miles you'd have to cycle 9 and so forth. Also, be sure not to increase the duration of your running or cycling, cardio etc by more than 10% per week. I've stuck to this principle with practically everything and have still made tons of gains in strength and endurance and even my max plank time (around 5:00). Hope this helps!

I would also base it on time. It is indeed more realiable and if you could track your distance/ pace you could see if your cardio is getting better.
