That was so frustrating to watch. The extra calories from cycling are way smaller than driving a whole car around using fossil fuels. (Yes even with the calories coming from imported avocados) It's estimated that a cyclist burns 50 calories a mile. Assuming a plant based diet, (about 1.26*10-3 kgCO2/calorie), you end up with 60 grams CO2/mile for the bike. This is compared to about 400 grams CO2/mile for a car. So there's an order of magnitude difference, and this doesn't even account for the footprint of making a car vs a bike, and the vastly different infrastructure needs for a car dominated city.
