Not really the same as driving 100Km, watch 2Hrs of people racing around in an oval doing 200Km/Hr+. driving to a restaurant, driving to a nightspot, and driving home...

Rowan and I often do these car-free weekends where we drive to our destination. Park the van. Then spend the weekend cycling and walking.
We did that at Christmas.
Drove out to where we spent Christmas on Christmas Eve. Parked the van. Cycled and walked on Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Then drove home on the next day.
But for 2 days, we didn't use the van at all.
We could have ... but it was more fun to cycle.
