Fitness test: Can you do these things?

A while back, Bev asked if you could pass Dr. Oz's push-up test or not. Could you? I could -- but barely; I finished with badly shaking arms.
Here's another fitness test: According to this article from the Daily Mail, and this post from Bev, the majority of people in the UK can't do 20 sit-ups, cycle for 20 minutes or touch their toes while standing up. I can do all three fairly easily, and while I couldn't touch my toes before I took up yoga, 20 sit-ups and 20-minutes of cycling has never been a problem for me, even when I was quite out of shape. But enough about me -- I'm curious, what about you?
