I also did a 65km and then 135km ride with similar "training" (2x7km four times a week to school), but it was way slower than 25km/h. They took 4.5 and 10 hours, respectively. I think riding 100km without training is possible, but at 25km/h very difficult.

Why? Are there even longer distances?

No, there's just no cycling infrastructure.

I was doing it on a roadbike and could comfortably average 27km which got me there 3h. Driving was about 1.2h.

In the summer, I would start pedalling at 5am and get to a local cafe at 8. The first hour was amazing, broad daylight and you basically had the whole road network to myself.

There is almost none here (around Prague, .cz) too. I ride on the roads.

Yeah, unfortunately, for me, even after some training, it's still hard for me to average over 22 km/h (entire travel including stops; the moving average is about 25km/h, e.g. https://www.strava.com/activities/9688833121).
