Cycling km not registering in dashboard

[LHW1]

Went for a cycle today and set my Blaze to bike. The km done haven't registered on my dash board or converted into steps for my Weekend Warrior challenge. I'm new to all this am I missing something???

@KitC Welcome to Fitbit, now go join a step challenge! 😉

A few more questions to consider. Since when has fitness been defined in terms of step count? What sport measures progress by step count?

You are not alone.

@KitC how are you tracking the ride? Did you manually start it with the connected gps to your phone, or let the Blaze auto detect. Auto detect won't give distance.

I turn GPS on in the biking section of the Blaze then when it's ready I select Go on the Blaze as well.
Just ran 10.8 which shows up in app but the dash only shows a little over a mile in walking steps.

I've noticed the distance I cycle daily had never been added to my dashboard - should it?!

[Rich_Laue]

That's correct @Charmedone bike rides are not a step based activity and therefore the distance is not added to your step based distance.

Running isn't walking but it's added.

Running is a step based activity. I'll edit my last post.
