I am using a PROFORM Tour de France stationary bike, which uses Google Earth data and scenery to simulate real-world elevation changes. As of this post, I am nearly 250 miles in to my 3700-mile journey. It's a fascinating way to learn about American history and stay in shape at the same time.

“which uses Google Earth data and scenery to simulate real-world elevation changes”

Wouldn’t it be easier just to look around (esp ahead)?
