Me too!!
Turbo "miles"** are NOT cycling, it's that simple. It's a fitness aide for when you DO go cycling. And how snobbery comes into it, I will never know. If anyone wants to put me on their ignore list for holding this view, feel free.....
It's the same as using a rowing machine - you won't conquer the Atlantic from your spare bedroom

** A mile is a unit of distance. It is not possible to cover miles while stationary. You can burn units of energy, turn the cranks whatever number of times, but it is NOT covering miles!

You will learn, as I did, that putting people on ignore just leads to disjointed threads. And you end up using the "show ignored content" facility; as you just didDone
