A strong cyclist (not your average commuter) can put out 250 watts for four hours to generate one kwh worth about 10 cents on the power grid. One kwh is equivalent to 80 hp for one minute. Your four hours of hard cycling would probably power the bus for less than one minute. This estimate assumes all your power output, not just the braking, would be saved. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Doug]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2009 12:16AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
