compare to jogging
How many miles of jogging compare to how many miles of biking?

Re: compare to jogging
Now there's a question I've never actually thought about. I know I can barely jog the length of myself (and I'm not terribly long) but, then again, I can't cycle particularly far without slowing down considerably.

In summary, I am completely useless and have no idea. Sorry.

here:
it's really dependent on speed i think:

Activity Calories burned per hour
Bicycling 6 mph 240
Bicycling 12 mph 410
Jogging 5.5 mph 740
Jogging 7 mph 920
Jumping rope 750
Running in place 650
Running 10 mph 1,280
Skiing (cross-country) 700
Swimming 25 yds/min 275
Swimming 50 yds/min 500
Tennis (singles) 400
Walking 2 mph 240
Walking 4 mph 440

so yeah, hope that helps.

That's good to know. I guess I burned off about 1000 calories cycling yesterday even despite my meandering slowness. Thanks for that information.
