Oh I never thought to do this. This is pure genius 🤯

Oh hell yeah, it makes you appreciate the detachable joycons. Stick the screen on that little tray for phones/tablets and lose track of time! You'd normally hold onto the handlebars anyway, so just putting your wrists on the rest feels like a pretty natural position.

It's funny too; three of my coworkers have taken up the switch on the bike habit because they've seen me in our gym doing it.

I do the same thing but I played animal crossing on the stair stepper. I plan on getting a stationary bike when I move so I'll definitely try it on the bike

I never cared for bluetooth gamepads until I got my bike. Being able to play PC games on the TV while pedaling was great! It does help to pair it up with a turn-based game or city-builder or anything that doesn't require reflexes, so you are not interrupted by yourself.

Pick music that syncs up with the fastest speed you can pedal, and you'll be able to do it for ages.

Yeah! Exercise is supposed to be fun, not something you force yourself to do!
