An item of exercise equipment with a movable support that is movable in a fore-aft direction and simultaneously movable laterally, e.g. about a tilt axis. The exercise equipment may be a cycle mounted to a base. A roller and track arrangement may be provided between the cycle and base, to provide movement of the cycle in the axial direction and in a tilt direction relative to the base. The roller and track arrangement may be one or more curved roller and track engagement surfaces that extend in the axial direction and provide a gravity bias of the platform toward an axial neutral position. The cycle and base include a tilt biasing arrangement for biasing the cycle toward a tilt neutral position relative to the base.

The present invention relates, in various embodiments, to improved simulation technology for use with a stationary training system. In some embodiments, this includes use of sensors, for example, wearable sensors, to control simulation parameters (such as display and/or performance parameters). For example, in some embodiments, a body worn sensor, such as an accelerometer and/or gyroscope, is used thereby to infer body position attributes of a user and, in response, configure one or more simulation parameters. These may include, for example, display parameters (for example, whether a simulated avatar is seated or standing) and/or performance parameters (for example, simulated wind resistance).

Devices and computer technology are configured to enable enhanced simulated bicycle steering for use with a stationary training system. For example, one embodiment includes a device configured to support and enable simulated steering of a bicycle front wheel, for use with a stationary training system, optionally including a sensor device configured to provide a steering signal for user by a bicycle simulator software application. Further embodiments include computer technology configured to provide bicycle simulation functionality, including steering. Simulation of steering is in some embodiments based on a combination of handlebars turning and bicycle tilt, and may account for counter-steering motions.
