@Fernyfairwy10 Because you're not walking. 😊 There's no stride length associated etc. If you start the bike activity on your Versa, it will prompt the Fitbit mobile app to start GPS and record the data. If you have an interest in tracking indoor biking/spinning, perhaps this thread will be of interest to you.
