You don't have to do a keto diet to burn body fat. The more you exercise the more your body will get better at converting fat to energy. No keto diet required.
In fact, probably most of your steady power output energy is from burning fat. That's why I feel like I'm resting when I'm at that all day power output. My energy levels for hard output are being topped off from the carbs I consume via food or drink while riding. But at lowered power output, fat is probably supplying most of the currently used energy.
