It all depends. Running burns more calories, but biking is easier on your knees and feet. Change it up and do some of both if you get easily bored.

I think run will better than ride a bike. When you run, your body burns a lot of calories more than ride a bike.
Anyway, both of them are good, but run is little bid better than ride a bike.

It really depends. both are going to be good for your cardiovascular. Cycling will take a lot less of a toll on your body. Your knees won't hurt as much from cycling. In order for it to be good excercise though, you should pedal most of the time. No coasting if you can avoid it. Use a gear that requires a little work. Running on the other hand, you take off and goes as long as you can.

ride a bike. running is very hard on your knees. And, if you don't wear a helmet, riding a bike is hard on your head. I speak from experience.

Running is better in the sense that it is able to get your heart rate up high, however, it can be strenuous on the knees and in that sense, cycling is better.
