i find this hard to believe, but i'm not an expert.
plus you miss out on the added benefits that riding gives. an hour walk and i'd only cover about 10km max and be staring at houses the whole time. an hour on the bike and i'm out into some glorious countryside and the associated views. wildlife everywhere etc etc.
of course everyone's situation will be different.
whilst riding has helped my lose some weight, and gain a lot of fitness, it isn't the sole reason why i ride. i've seen more of SA's countryside in the last 4 years than i'd seen for the previous 20years.
not saying you have to choose one or the other though. i'm just not a fan of transporting myself on my own legs
