Creating a CyberCycle Rider ID
Individuals can ride a CyberCycle in Guest Mode or they can simply login with their CyberCycle Rider ID, which is 1 to 10 digits long. We highly recommend logging in to an account so that the rider’s data can be saved and the rider can participate in community challenges.
The CyberCycle’s simple login feature is great for senior living communities, because riders don’t have to type in a full username and password which might take an aging individual more time and require lots of finger dexterity. A 1-10 digit login number allows for riders to sit down and quickly start riding in their profile.
To participate in challenges such as Active Aging Week or CyberCycle Madness, riders must be logged into their account in order for their miles pedaled to be counted toward their team totals.
Creating a Rider ID is easy! Follow the steps below to see how to get riders set up.
Step 1:
Login to your owner account on Bike Manager.
Here you will see your dashboard with an overview of the equipment you have. Select “CyberCycle” from the left panel.
Step 2:
Now you’re able to view the activity of your equipment (i.e. a workout summery for your residents).
Select “Manage Riders” from the dropdown bar.
Step 3:
Select “Add User”
Step 5:
Please provide the resident’s or patient’s information, including their name, gender, and age. There is also an option to enter a “Max Heart Rate.” If the rider uses the heart rate monitor during a workout and their heart rate exceeds the set Max Heart Rate, a notification will appear at the top of the screen, advising them to slow down. This feature also functions when a smartwatch or smart heart rate monitor is connected to the bike via Bluetooth. We recommend that individuals who need to closely monitor their heart rate wear a smart monitor for more reliable and continuous tracking.
Additionally, you can create a unique Rider ID for each resident. The Rider ID can be between 1 and 10 digits long. We suggest using an easily memorable number, such as the resident's apartment number. If multiple residents share the same apartment, you can differentiate their Rider IDs by adding a leading zero. For example, if Joe and Patty live in apartment 206, Patty could be assigned 206 and Joe 0206.
