On a flat surface, bikes expend less energy to use than walking. This actually makes total sense. Biking is also a kinder motion on joins than walking which is actually quite hard on knees.
walking is hard on knees because we walk on asphalt and concrete, which are not what our body is made for. our body is made for the soft dirt grounds of forests and fields
Not the same a bike in the plane street than a wheelchair on the sidewalk with borders on the beginning and end, often problematic for people in wheelchairs in cities with too much obstacles for them.
