My road bike consumes energy bars! And fruit!

So you ride around town in a PacMan? Aren't ghosts a problem?

Just gotta always have a Power Pellet in range

What a coincidence, my cargo bike that regularly takes 50kg of cargo runs on the same stuff !

Surprisingly enough, this makes acoustic bikes less carbon efficient per unit distance than electric ones, depending on the details of your diet. Of course, once the emissions are that low, this is more a curiosity than actionable insight (beyond the typical "less meat/dairy = lower emissions").

"Acoustic" bike? What is this madness?

I thought you were autocorrected badly but I guess this is a term people use?

It's a joke referencing electric vs. acoustic guitars.

Yaaa I’m vegan which helps a lot! A solar powered ebike is probably more resource efficient tho.

I get 30 miles per sandwich! Beat that EV owners! :P

What's in that sandwich though? The Cybertruck using California non-renewable energy creates 162g of CO2 per mile. A sandwich full of lamb generates 666g. A sandwich of lentils does 40g.

Haha, I've thought about it myself, but your response spurred me to dig deeper. Looks like there has been a study:

I wonder how long it would take for an EV to catch up to a bike all-in (including manufacturing materials) if the cyclist was eating something heavy on carbon footprint like a philly cheesesteak everyday.
