I walk about 1.6m/ 2.5km to work in the morning and I'd walk quite briskly to get the most out of it. I'm thinking about getting a bike for the journey and was wondering which of the two would burn off the most calories in the trip.Thanks Back to top mcc Yahoo User Posted: Fri Apr 20, 2007 1:34 am    Post subject: Cycling, you would have to walk at quite a pace to burn off what you would burn using a bike.

Back to top zurriolo Yahoo User Posted: Fri Apr 20, 2007 2:53 am    Post subject: It depends.Mostly on the intensity! That is the key factor.All that said:Get the bike, and then walk briskly to work some days, and ride others. You can also use the bike for other trips; longer distances, enjoy fun rides, and get some intensity out of riding the bike longer. This will add variety to your exercise and make it more enjoyable.
