The Apple Watch Series 7 has a bigger screen than before, plus a durable construction that can withstand cracks and dust. But it also has plenty of new cycling features to make bike riding even more enjoyable. These include automatic cycling detection, fall detection and better calorie tracking when you're riding an electric bike. But you don't need the latest Series 7 to take advantage of most of the new cycling features on the Apple Watch -- they're available when you update to WatchOS 8.
I've been using the bike features on the Apple Watch Series 6 and Series 7 for a month now, and while I don't think the watch is ready to replace a dedicated cycling computer just yet, it's now way more helpful for casual riders to track their workouts. Here are some of the new bike features on the Apple Watch and why they've changed my riding experience.

Okay, so it now has a new name: Omicron. As they say, there are still a lot of things unknown about this new strain, but I have confidence that we are not back to square one.
What I am not confident about for the new year: any plans for any company to have everybody back in the office, any travelling without tons of mandatory tests, and stopping the compulsory wearing of masks here in Singapore.
Oh well. Welcome to year 3.
