Road bikes and calories burned

raiderzara

Hey, cyclists, how do you all track your calories for road biking? I tend to just track it all as 10-12 mph because the burn for my actual average speed seems way too high. I do not have a HRM and don't plan on buying one soon...just wondering what everyone else does. Thanks in advance!

I based my average calorie burn per mile based off my dad's (just scaled it to my weight). I've heard the calorie burn is fairly close no matter what your speed is.
