Turning off GPS tracking in Exercise

Is there a way to turn off GPS tracking in some exercises like Outdoor Bike?  I frequently use the same route to go into town, etc. or there are times I'd like to record my biking trip, but I don't need or want it to track the route.  Is there some way to turn off the GPS tracking and still record my time on the Outdoor Bike (for instance)?

Thanks

Hi @Drtolson - when you select the bike ride, scroll up the watch screen to get to the options where you can set it, before setting off.

@Drtolson   Outdoor bike is an auto recognized activity.  All of my biking and walking routes are familiar, so I never use the Exercise app at all for any of them.  I can also pause and interact with my Fitbit screen, if I need to.  You can't do this when you use the Exercise app.

@Guy_  PERFECT!  I found the settings after selecting Bike and scrolling upward.  Just what I was looking for.  Thanks!
