does a mile on a stationary bike equal a mile in a walk

I am new here and I just got my fitbit.   In the process of learning about my new fitbit I use a stationary bike (for a mile) using the treadmill run and stationary bike (for a mile) on the elliptical.  Both the treadmill and elliptical function showed 0.02 mil  for both.

 

My question does a mile on a stationary bike only equal 0.02 miles in a walk?  

 

Thanks

steps are not "recognized" by your tracker while riding a bike. Folks have found workarounds by placing their trackers in interesting places. However, depending on the tracker you have, it will record the workout so your HR and calories will be specific to the activity.
