From the documentation (https://dev.fitbit.com/docs/activity/#activity-time-series) it seemed that time series distance requests that didn't specify "tracker" should include all activity (automatically or manually entered) that included a value for distance.
But we've had a user report that her miles logged by biking aren't getting included when we pull her mileage summary (though her walking miles are logged).
The request is of the form https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/activities/distance/date/2015-09-01/2015-09-30/1d.json. Is it intentional that biking distances are excluded from these requests? If so, is there some other request I can make to get the total distance covered each day during the specified period?
Thanks for any help - the API and documentation have been really great to use!

Distance is for ambulatory activities only, so cylcing distance would not be included.
