The simple answer is yes, you do lose weight by riding bicycles. The muscles used during this activity are your quadraceps (thigh) and your calf muscles (lower leg). Thank you for seeking professional help from Dr. Ngofre.

Riding a bike is a very good way to loose weight, it increases your heart rate and by doing that you loose those carbohydrates.

Also your working your thigh muscles and calf muscles, so you will tone up at the same time.

I'm sure that it also helps your abs, with the motion that your body does by swaying back and forth has to do something for your stomach but mainly legs.
