What Exercise short cut do you use when riding a stationary bike?(with a charge 6)

ANSWERED

I have a charge 6, and besides yoga, my main daily exercise is a stationary bike. There doesn't seem to be a choice for that. "Bike" doesn't work, since that seems to be dependant on the fitbit tracking the physical distance you ride a real bike. So I use "Spinning" as the only viable option, BUT every time I ride my stationary bike, and tell my fitbit I am "Spinning" it asks between the 5 and 6 minute mark if I want to end the exercise. Why is it doing this? I thought at first it was that my heart rate was too low (it takes a lot to get it up to moderate or vigorous) But it has happened when my heart rate was in moderate or vigorous, every time between 5-6 minutes in. It never happens during yoga or a walk, only the "spinning" mode. Is there a better choice when riding a stationary bike? Or is this just one more of the many glitches I have with this particular fitbit. (we won't go into that, but they are many). 

So, Does anyone else ride a stationary bike with a charge 6? I can't imagine I am the only one. Why is this not an exercise option?  And does anyone else have their fitbit charge 6 asking if they want to end the exercise when they are obviously still going strong?

@Marumoore   Please use the Spinning shortcut.  It is the recommended shortcut for any stationary bike — upright, recumbent, any position.
