I give up....every resource says something different. I double checked my bike computer: 2.5 hour ride at avg speed 23km/h (14mph) burned 2710 calories for my input weight = 1084 cal/hr. That matches the chart at:

Right or wrong? Who knows.....
PS- I used the formula SadieKatie at the link above, and got a total of 757calories burned. Another site http://www.caloriesperhour.com/index_burn.html
said 816 cal/hour.
I assume there are several different calculations or formulae used?
