    You need food regardless if you bike or drive. Maybe just a little more if you are in good trim and bike a lot. Still cheaper than gas for a car though.

      The amount of calories you burn every day doesn’t change much, even if you exercise. Unless you’re doing some serious hardcore training or exposing yourself to extreme cold, it won’t make much difference to your calorie usage (your body just reallocates it from something else to exercise). Most of your movement calorie-burn is just from everyday movement.
