Calorie calculator

A quick active-calorie estimate based on MET values, meaning the ride cost above resting energy. Treat the result as a guide: wind, terrain, bike weight and fitness can move the real number a lot.

MET (Metabolic Equivalent): MET describes how many times more energy an activity costs compared with rest. Since 1 MET is about 1 kcal/kg/h, the headline result subtracts 1 MET and shows the active ride cost.

Formula: active kcal = (MET - 1) ร— weight ร— time (h)
