Dear Linus and John,
Given Linus' figure for energy use when you are riding an electric
bicycle, I have revisited my summary and added a few human scale (for
a 70 kg person) values for comparison.
Summary
Electric bicycle 20 J/m
Bicycling 130 J/m
Walking 200 J/m
Walking (briskly) 220 J/m
Jogging 300 J/m
Swimming 300 J/m
Car 3 200 J/m
School bus 13 510 J/m
Truck 15 440 J/m
Boeing 747 54 400 J/m
