From the pages of assorted Bicycling Magazines from the past 6 years. It's fun to think about after a long ride.

• 2.5 - the number of tubs of Betty Crocker Rich & Creamy Vanilla frosting that could be eaten to replenish the 5,148 calories burned during a 107-mile ride with avg speed of 15-mph.
  
• 10 - the number of homemade sugar cookies you'd have to eat to replenish the 680 calories burned during a 1-hour cyclocross race.
• 11 - the number of Firecracker pops (385 calories) you can eat after riding 8 miles to your friends barbecue at 14 mph.
