Answer: 88 inches

Explanation:

So the radius of the tire is computed by dividing it in half. We know that in one round of the wheel, the wheel moves to a distance equal to the circumference of the wheel. So each time the wheel goes around, the bicycle moves about 88 inches 88 i n c h e s forward.
