How many calories do I burn when cycling into work?

This is about 1 apple or one of McDonald's very smallest hamburgers.

However, your body has muscles developed during this sport. Those muscles must be fed and repaired.

They will continue to consume quite a bit of calories after you have stopped pedaling.

This, now, is a much larger figure--about 800 calories or so.

Think of it this way if you walk fast for 20 minutes you'll go about a mile, and thats enought to burn up one doughnut.

If you want to lose weight get a unicycle. Your legs keep moving unlike a bike where you can coast along.

I can go 7 miles, if I had a better seat and larger wheel I'd go many more miles. It's more fun to do.

To be truthful,i don't actually know the answer.But check out dis website. It estimates the number of calories you'll burn performing a range of activities at varying intensity levels, over a certain period of time or particular distance, taking into consideration your height and weight.

Probably around 400. This depends on your weight, rolling resistance, etc. See this chart for a guideline:
