Since a stationary bike doesn't move, there's no way it can travel 20 miles. Now, if you're asking how long it would take to ride twenty miles on a bicycle, it depends on speed, wind, and other factors. Typically a bike maximum speed is about 20 miles per hour. So it would take about an hour to ride 20 miles on a REGULAR moving bicycle.

How many steps in 30 minute stationary bike ride?

Entirely pointless question as there aren't any steps in bike riding, and a stationary bike doesn't go anywhere. But making some rough comparisons to real life riding a 20 mile ride under average conditions can be anywhere between 45 minutes and one hour 20 minutes, depending on the rider, bike and course. A well accepted recommendation states that the cranks should turn at a rate of 80-100 turns/minute, which gives you around 6000 turns for the ride.
