Seeing as the route itself is almost completely flat the entire way, it does seem reasonable to believe that anyone who could walk continuously for 40 minutes (and I do believe this would include most city dwellers) should be able to do a 6 mile ride at a modest pace fairly easily. The OP didn't make any mention of the condition of the bicycle but I doesn't sound like they're expecting it to be unsafe to ride. I think that would be a bit like assuming that someone who was going to pick up a used car was expecting to need a tow truck to get it home. Certainly there are some who buy used cars in such condition, but I would never assume that.
