So I'm trying to get as close as possible to how many calories I'm burning while biking with my one year old on the back. Any suggestions how I can figure out how many more calories I'm burning with the extra weight added?

    Probably difficult to estimate. Have you considered picking up a heart rate monitor? That'll be most accurate.

    Use a calorie burn calculator that you can change the weight on, add the childs weight to your own and plug that combined weight in the calculator.
