yeah, I think walking and running works the calves way more relative to the other legs muscles than biking. The last push-off motion of walking stroke uses primarily the calves. Same with running, walking up stairs, reaching for objects on a high-shelf, etc. If you want to build up the calves, you gotta do some other exercises other than just biking.
