    If you want to be as efficient as you possibly can be, build yourself a nice aerodynamic recumbent velomobile with a small e-bike assist motor this summer.

    @rvaughnmd a jet transport is more efficient than a human by foot? ๐Ÿค” probably because of the distance it can cover

          @rvaughnmd a bicycle is heavier than a velomobile according to that chart?

            @rvaughnmd @petervalkema amazingly I just thought about this an hour ago, with the addendum that a person in a velomobile is even twice as efficient

            (ah, I've now read the entire article and that's also mentioned ๐Ÿ˜…)

              Is it really fair to let the human have a bicycle and not the salmon and the horse?

                @rvaughnmd .. except that few other animals move along paths with a hard and smoothly asphalted surface

                      @rvaughnmd I, for one, appreciate the anti-dolphin bias of this chart. Rats of the sea.

                        @rvaughnmd Wow, that is great fun!

                        However I assume the statistics are completely different when you include the effort to pave the road for efficient bicycle riding.
