This is the 1st week this winter that the weather's stopped me going out - 50mph winds & some local flooding - & so yesterday was my first time at the gym on an exercise bike... 100 virtual km in just over 3hrs... It was a pretty solid block of exercise - consistent uninterrupted effort on an interval program with blocks at different resistance - but also a very very different experience to being out on an actual bike with all the real world conditions & don't think it's possible to make an accurate distance comparison. From my experience - I'd say very roughly that a virtual distance is probably worth about 60-70% of real road miles.
