I was asked that as a joke as I was running to the store for mower
fuel:

Then I thought about it. When it comes to cost, it's not cheap, but
most of us have some fat to sacrifice, so no biggie. My guesstimate was
50 calories per mile. Let's say a nice bowl of homemade spaghetti and
meatballs costs $3 to make, the same as a gallon of gas around here.
That's 10 miles per cost of a gallon of gas to power me on my bike.
Worse than a Ford Expedition! For shame.
An American gallon of gas has 31,000 calories, too bad we can't drink
it, as we'd get between 600 and a 1000 miles per gallon. Yowsah. :-D
I ride errands as it makes more sense than half-warming up the car
driving three miles, but all that crazy math got me laughin'.
