Petition to change title of thread.

"Big Boys Club" sounds like a fun place where fat foks like me could just hang out and talk about deep fried foods and shit.

This is more of a "Bikers Club" or "Exercise Freaks" or "Former Big Boys Club" or "Matty Rain is Canadian Lance Armstrong" or something.

Do you think those calories burn calculation are accurate?

Not Strava's. I'd need to add a heart rate monitor.

Carb Manager's (higher) numbers are likely more accurate:

Add a heart rate monitor I did! Wahoo Tickr X (chest strap). And I was right - Strava's calorie number is now in line with those of the food logging apps:

I wouldn't have thought that riding a bike would burn so much
 
Me neither! I'm surprised to see that it raises your heart rate by a ton, even with a moderate effort.

Cycling is amazeballs
 
you must be pushing all the time. I always wonder why those yahoos zoom by me.
I like to cruise, only push on those annoying hills. I'm guessing my avg heart rate is 95
 
Well yeah. I cycle as a workout, not as a way to get from A to B. I also seek hills to improve my climbing skills.

This is the worst hill I've encountered so far - it looks like nothing because of the GoPro's super wide field of view, but trust me. It starts out at a very slight grade and it ramps up to 12-15% over a few hundred meters. I was a few mins away from completing Owen Sound-Wiarton in under 2 hours and my legs were already mostly gone, so I had to resort to the slalom trick to avoid putting a foot down. Horrible. 👌

 
come to think of it, I've yet to see a fat guy on a road bike, with that pointy helmet, spandex and those little gloves :hmm:
...common Dave, give it a try
 
I think this guy is considered to be a Big Boy. Don't know if you want him to join your club though. Love me them English soccer fans! :yes:

I've regained a bunch of weight since getting off keto. 196.8 this morning. Waist measures the same so it seems to be all water weight.

I'm not concerned with the scale number anymore, I just wanna get leaner. Should I invest in skinfold caliper thingies?
