๐Ÿšฒ Bike Routes

This Notion template is intended for those seeking a cycling tracker, calorie burner calculator and general archive for past cycling routes. I use one database with four different views of which are labeled "maps," "speed stats," "planning" and "calories."

MET scores for cycling can be found here.

The Notion formula equivalent

if(prop("Avg. mph") < 8, round(4.5 * prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453 * 3.5 / 200 * 60), if(prop("Avg. mph") < 11, round(6 * prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453 * 3.5 / 200 * 60), if(prop("Avg. mph") < 13, round(8 * prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453 * 3.5 / 200 * 60), if(prop("Avg. mph") < 15, round(10 * prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453 * 3.5 / 200 * 60), if(prop("Avg. mph") < 17, round(12 * prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453 * 3.5 / 200 * 60), if(prop("Avg. mph") < 19, round(14 * prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453 * 3.5 / 200 * 60), if(prop("Avg. mph") > 19, round(16 * prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453 * 3.5 / 200 * 60), 0)))))))

The Breakdown In Relation To Formula

*Note: every if statement only changes the MET score and AVG. mph, of which you can find data for at the above link (MET scores).

if(prop("Avg. mph") < 8, round(4.5 * prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453 * 3.5 / 200 * 60)


  • if(prop("Avg. mph") < 8

    • If average miles per hour is UNDER 8 ...

  • round(4.5 *

    • then ROUND UP the following calculation โ†’ "Met Score" MULTIPLIED by ...

  • prop("Weight (pounds)") * .453

    • weight in kg โ†’ which is "weight in pounds" MULTIPLIED by .453 ...

  • * 3.5 / 200

    • then MULTIPLY by 3.5 and DIVIDE by 200 ...

  • * 60)

    • lastly, MULTIPLY by 60
