i think it is enough but if you are out of shape you should consider 45 minutes
************ But it's grossly inadequate if you're training for the Olympics.
Really, now, when you ask the question, you need to identify your current condition (e.g. sedentary and out of shape) and your goal (e.g. to be a track star).
You also should know that the intensity and focus of the exercise itself changes things a lot. If you ride your bike up a steep incline for 30 minutes, the amount of energy you burn off is not even in the same universe as the amount you'd burn coasting downhill.
Likewise, while bike riding is a good aerobic exercise if it's done right, it will neglect certain muscle groups while overbuilding others. Take a look at strong amateur bike riders' bodies -- you'll see the effect of this quite strikingly. They tend to have very well developed thighs and rumps, while relatively less developed chests and arms. If you want a more balanced exercise that does not impact your joints, consider swimming.

Does mountain biking 10miles a day make you a faster sprinter?
Probably only if you start from a very poor level of fitness. Bike riding is mainly about endurance, while sprinting is all about explosive power. There can be secondary benefits though, if the added exercise of the bike riding is enough for you to lose some weight, then that will help in sprinting. If you use the bike riding for interval training(i.e. go flat out for a short period, rest a little , then go flat out again) then it can help a little too.
Is it true that while you are riding a bike it could make you shorter?
Well, sort of. As soon as you get out of bed in the morning the discs in your back (mainly) starts to compress, making you a little bit shorter over the course of the day. But this happens whether youre sitting up, standing or riding a bike. So basically it's being upright that's making you shorter, not that you're riding a bike.

How much fat can you burn riding a bike for 30 minutes?
Depends on how hard you go at it, and what your eating habits are like. If you ride for 30 minutes/day, at a level of effort that gets you sweaty and winded, it can use up a decent amount of calories - which certainly can help with weight loss. But if you're overeating badly, 30 minutes won't be enough to to let you lose any weight. Likewise, 30 minutes of just casually turning the pedals won't use up any important amount either.

No but he's slim. He's very conscious about what he eats and gets on his bike every day. Riding the bike doesn't get you a 6-pack, not one that shows anyway.
What is a good diet when you are bike riding over 50 miles in one day?
First, I just want to say, nobody should be riding a bike 50 miles a day. If you were to do this one day (not as a daily thing), I would say make sure you eat a high-calorie diet and eat lots of carbs (because carbs give you energy). I'm not sure of a specific calorie amount, but definetely a lot more than a normal day.
