will it track bicycling?

Yes, you can manually enter your bicycling activity. It will ask you the activity, effort level, start time and duration. There are many exercise activities list on the app.

When I bought this device I mistakenly assumed it was a gps device. It is more of a glorified pedometer, so I would say it probably does not track bicycling.

I'm not aware that it will track calories burned, however, it is a great heart rate watch.

It might, but I wouldn't recommend it. I would use a step-counting device (FitBit or something similar) as every time you stop with this Garmin, it will beep and stop as you have stopped moving. This device is truly designed for constant movement such as running and biking. Hope this helps.

No, it won't do that. Generally, this device just transfers info that is collected by your phone to the this screen via bluetooth. It is actually pretty cool. I don't actually use it because I ride too far and I have drained my phone battery too much. So I bought a Garmin 510. It is great for a 40-50 mile kinda ride. It is easy to read and has a cool way of turning you music on and off. Don't let the fact that I don't use mine deter you.

If all you need is the watch for keeping track of your heart rate, then it would work well. Although, I'm almost positive the foot pod accessory wouldn't be able to keep track of your distance like it can for running. That's an easy remedy as you could buy an odometer/speedometer for the bike to keep track of your distance and speed if that's important to you.

So far I haven't used the Garmin while cycling with any specific alerts. It vibrates to alert me I've gone a mile. Then when I switch to running it still vibrates to alert me I've gone a mile. Is that what you mean?

Absolutely not. This only tracks your mileage that your run. I has no map etc.

The TomTom Multi-Sport Cardio can still take signals from a external chest strap which will come in very usefully for cycling as the watch is mounted on the bike instead of its been wore on the wrist. Hope this helps.

NO! Any tracking would be totally inaccurate. It would only respond to motion of your legs and arms. If you're coasting, the mileage indicator would not record it. You'll need an odometer for that. jcp

Yes, I use it myself to track my soccer performance. Even better if you combine it with the heart tracking and the gps watch.

this device will work with the iphone to read your running strides. it will not work as effective with a bike as the iphone will scan the running stride angle to estimate your running distance. you can use it while riding as long as you run after riding. you may need to calibrate it a second time after riding a bike so the iphone can pick up the correct stride distance. for multi sport devices look into the Suunto Ambit2, with Foot pod/Bike Pod (sold separately). The Sunto watch is a multi useful machine that can be used for almost anything.

It does track speed, direction of travel, and location. It doesn't have an accelerometer, no data about jackrabbit starts or 2-wheel turns.

Yes it does. It tracks duration, distance, avg.pace, avg. speed, max speed, and calories.

No and it's not designed to. It's a tri-sport gps unit, not an activity tracker.

I'm afraid it doesn't. It is an exercises device, not a going out info. It records your traject, speed, heights and other data like that. Good luck

You will have every fonctions as cardio tracking but the speed and position will not work, but the watch will register many data and when you will have internet acces will load it.

If the specific Indoor Bike has an Ant+ compatible speed sensor then yes. Otherwise your speed and distance will always be zero as the unit relies on GPS to calculate speed and distance.
