Abstract: The present disclosure regards a computer-implemented method of physically interacting with an exercise bike comprising: receiving an output signal from the exercise bike, said output signal being based on physical activity of a user on the exercise bike; providing real-time visualisation on a display of a digital user avatar representing the user riding a digital bicycle in a virtual cycling game, wherein the user is part of a cycling team comprising at least one virtual team member in addition to the digital user avatar, and wherein a speed of the user in the virtual cycling game is based on the output signal from the exercise bike; and receiving instruction input from the user to control at least one action of at least one of the virtual team members; and updating the virtual cycling game based on said at least one action, such that the user must adjust the physical activity on the exercise bike in order for the digital user avatar to follow along in the virtual cycling game.

Abstract: The present disclosure regards a steering apparatus for an exercise bike comprising: a connection part adapted to be secured to the exercise bike, and a holding part connected to the connection part and configured for holding an electronic sensor unit, such as a smartphone, wherein the steering apparatus is configured to have a steady state configuration where the connection part and the holding part define a first orientation relative to each other, and a steering configuration wherein an external force applied to the holding part rotates the holding part relative to the connection part defining a rotation axis of the steering apparatus.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a stationary exercise apparatus for indoor cycle training (1), i.e. a stationary exercise bicycle, preferably provided with a magnetic resistance unit (15). One embodiment relates to a stationary exercise bike comprising a flywheel (10) defining a radial gap (25) in the periphery wherein at least the periphery of the flywheel (10) has ferromagnetic properties, and wherein a magnetic resistance unit (15) is configured to controllably insert one, two or more magnets into said radial gap.
