can I use my Surge for Outdoor cycling?

[Nightwish]

Just got my surge today and have seen some videos saying I can use it for cycling. After searching through the exercises setting I can't find anything for bikes.

any help would be very welcome.

Moderator edit: I have moved your post to the Surge board to increase the chance of getting a response.

Thanks for popping by the forums @Nightwish! Of course! You can add the new exercises to your Surge shortcuts by going to your phone in the Fitbit App > Surge > ShortCuts. Or in your Fitbit.com Dashboard in a computer, under Settings > Surge > Exercise Shortcuts. 

In this case your Bike activities will include a map with the stats of your route.

I'll be around!

I can't seem to find the exercise menu (as shown) on my phone?

Thanks for getting back @Wharfrat68! If you're using a mobile device you have access a limited number of activities for your Fitbit shortcuts.

Please follow these steps from a computer, so you can have access to see all options:

1. Log in into your Fitbit Account by going to https://www.fitbit.com/login, and click on the Settings.
2. Click on the Surge picture to see the options, choose the option Exercise Shortcuts.
3. Choose the exercises you want to have, you will see the option "Bike". This option connects to GPS, so it will give you a map after syncing with the Fitbit App.

 

If you have any other information, please let me know!
