Is it possible that a 60kg boy riding a BMX bike could exert more pressure on a road surface than a 2500 kg truck?
Updated: 10/22/2022
Good question.
It's all about weight vs the size of the contact patches. If the contact patch area of the truck is more than 40 times that of the bicycle, then the truck will exert less pressure. Get a ruler, a BMX rider and a parked truck. Measure contact patches and do the math.
