All that said, I totally love Explorer.
Two things that I'd like
Show vKm or vMiles in game, like in VirZoom (for PC)
For an overall "session" Virtual millage counter (so that I can see how far I've gone including all explorer rides and play rides in "session".
We should be able to find out what's going on with that ride, thanks for the report.
In transitioning to VZfit, we've moved to "spins" as the base measure of exercise. A spin is one pedal revolution, relatable to how Fitbit uses steps. You can see your total spins across Play and Explorer at https://www.vzfit.com/stats, as well as many other progress metrics!
The reason we shied away from vKm is that it relied on knowing the resistance of your bike, which was possible with VZ Bike but not VZ Sensor. Also vKm was confusable with the virtual distance traveled by your avatar, which is additionally influenced by virtual hills, per-game speed multipliers and limits, and the difficulty setting (new to VZfit).
We know that vKm was a more intuitive metric but wanted something that would work fairly across Play and Explorer and also VZ Bike and Sensor. We're also getting requests to show estimate calories, because that's also something you also usually see. We're mocking up HUD variations to try all these things.
