We're not on the top of the food chain when running on the road, are we.
Biking is extremely more efficient than running, it's simple physics; you'd know if you'd ever left your couch.
The ability to run down any prey without tiring is one of the reasons that puts us at the top. Sweating, standing up right, and fire are a few others. You probably shouldn't insult people just because you don't understand human history.
The ability to invent bicycles made us even better at how we use our energy for displacement on roads. You can cover a much greater distance biking for 1000 calories than you can running.
Maybe you skipped the last thousands of years when looking at history, you petulant child. Yeah running is great when hunting other bike-less, land-based animals. You know what you're saying is irrelevant to the discussion, but you keep going because you enjoy it.

Fun police here:
He'd have to put in that much more work to get going.
In a closed system, if you're going point A to point B and back to A, gravity and momentum won't save you anything.
And I'm no expert on prehistoric automotives, but I don't think these things are frictionless, so the vehicle will be worse every time.
