A Better Bicyclist

Lose Weight PDF Print E-mail

A 200-pound person riding 12 miles in a hour on a bicycle will burn approximately 700 calories. A Big Mac contains 576 calories.

If you want to lose weight you could actually ride a half hour to MacDonalds, eat a Big Mac and return home. Of course, you couldn't have some fries or a regular Coke with the sandwich.

And just imagine how much weight you would lose if you did the ride every day without stopping at MacDonalds!
