So a full English is spot on providing I take my tea black?In summary, as a cyclist, you want to power yourself with animals that don't eat grass for the most minimal impact, chickens and pigs are good, Coows and sheeples are bad.
I've long held that a full English is good for anything and indeed my Strava pictures tend to back me up.So a full English is spot on providing I take my tea black?
And no beans, but that should go without saying.So a full English is spot on providing I take my tea black?
Oh and that refreshing beer after the ride......
300g CO2e: locally brewed cask ale at the pub
500g CO2e: local bottled beer from a shop or foreign beer in a pub
900g CO2e: bottled beer from the shop, extensively transported
You must be, otherwise you'd lose weight.I don't eat any more to cycle to work than I do to drive or get the bus.
That might be his criterion, but it's not a sensible basis for a realistic comparison of the costs.I haven't taken into account maintenance, shoes, gloves, lights etc either because the criterion set by the OP was simply bike cost ÷ miles travelled.

This is just the converse of the fat people who insist they don't eat too much, none of us are exempt from the laws of thermodynamics. Cycling typically burns about 300-400 kcal/her, the calorific value of body fat is 7800kcal/kg, so you can expect to lose around a kilogram of fat for every 20 hours or so of cycling unless you're replacing the energy you use. If you were commuting cycle-bus-cycle-bus alternately, then you could eat the same each day and be depleting your energy reserves on cycle days, whilst replenishing them on bus days, but this doesn't mean you're getting something for nothing, you're still eating more than you would if you were on the bus every day.I'm not eating any differently. My breakfasts are routinely predictable, as are my lunches and dinners, and they do not vary by transport method.

What do you expect me to say to a question like that?
Either you're depleting your fat reserves, or you're eating more to replace what you've used.
If you think you can cycle without using any energy, why don't you publish your evidence on here.Like I've said all along, I'm not eating any differently based on my choice of transport.
