    Stop putting watches in trees and on wheels its really stupid.
    Nice episode but the caalorie don’t seems completly correct if you look how tired you were, maybe I’m wrong
    Does the watch even know you’re going up?

    Does it only work for outdoor bikes and not exercise bikes?

    • Lexy Savvides

      November 10, 2021 at 6:08 pm

      Yes only for the outdoor cycle workout type

    • Brian Donegan

      November 10, 2021 at 6:18 pm

      @Lexy Savvides Thank you. That tells me the Apple Watch is not going to work for me. Very helpful. Thanks

    • Lexy Savvides

      November 10, 2021 at 6:58 pm

      @Brian Donegan as in the features I tested only work for outdoor cycling. You can track indoor rides using the specific workout type!

  18. Bruce Hewat

    A comparison between its tracking and a bike computer like a garmin would be interesting. I compared my garmin watch, bike computer and phone gps and there was a difference in how often they collected data which can make a difference when riding off road on twisty trails.

    Here’s the problem with Fall Detection and why, as a long-time and long-distance biking enthusiast, I had to turn it OFF: The poorly designed software thinks a fall has happened with even a modest bump, when going even a modest speed such as 12-15 MPH. This happens on both gravel and paved surfaces. I then either have to shut off the alarm while riding (bad idea) or I continually have to stop the ride. Simply it, a very important feature, perhaps crucial for those of us who bike deserted gravel areas, cannot be used. (Series 5 on 8.1. Feedback to Apple sent several times.)
