The bike knows my height and weight and that’s about it. From that it can calculate how my body burns calories?
Every body is very different, so I don’t see how any calculation can be accurate.

I would caution against using these numbers for any Calorie-in/out calculations. Even if they were 100% accurate, it still doesn’t take into account anything that happens outside of that machine.
Example: There’s something we call “non-exercise activity thermogenesis” (NEAT). This includes lots of things you do without thinking about it, like fidgeting, tapping your feet while sitting, or pacing around the room. In some people, NEAT can decrease significantly after exercise, which then negates much of the Calories burned.
