That doesn't add up. Cycling for 3 hours at 80 watts should only burn about 860 kcal, not 1500.

I went back & looked at my most recent "long ride" this fall to see for sure - and you're right. my avg wattage for this ride is 108 ; 80 watts is what I usually do when riding with someone else, ie socially, so that was the ballpark figure I used.
