When it comes to burning calories, your heart rate is much more important than what it is that you are doing. If you can reach and sustain the same heart rate for the same amount of time you will burn pretty much the same amount of calories regardless of activity.

And you haven't said how hard and how long you go at it.

Now, let's say an average speed for casual riding is about 10 mph.

3 miles means you're done in about 20 minutes.

If you stay on nice roads, casual riding MIGHT let you burn 450 cals/hour.

But you're probably only doing about 20 minutes.

20 minutes is 1/3 hour, so you're looking at 1/3 of the hourly calorie burn = 150 cals.

That's about 1/3 of a cupcake's worth in calories.

How many calories are burned in a one hour walk at 3.5 miles per hour and 4.5 miles per hour?

How can you compute your calories burned? Let's try an example. Say you weigh 150 pounds and you are walking for one hour at a rate of 3.5 miles per hour. Multiply 150 pounds by .035 = 5.25 calories burned per minute. Therefore, you would burn 315 calories during your one hour walk (5.25 times 60 miuntes). However, if you walk at a rate of 4.5 miles per hour, you will burn 7.2 calories per minute and 432 calories per hour. But you will have walked further (4.5 miles) than you walked with the 3.5 mph pace and, therefore, will burn more calories.
