I remember using a stationary cycle at the gym that had a computer connected and on the monitor it played out on a map (all over a crazy island) my bike’s progress: Harder up the volcano’s sides, faster on the down slopes, easy through the town and funny when you could bike underwater and then back on to the beach. The climbing aspect of Tim’s ladder reminded me of that same mind-engaging/distracting exercise. Looks like fun as do all his inventions!
