I read a lot of things, don't believe most of them.

I just did a random calorie calculator I found on the web. Based on my input from my last ride it said I burned 1,200+ calories, my bolt shows I burned 819.
I'm not saying it's accurate, but it's definitely not 4x high in my experience, or 2x. Or even high really.
