Zombies, bike!

Has anybody tried doing Zombies, Run! on a bike? I hate running but enjoy biking, so this is of interest to me.

Best answer: It works just fine, especially with some of the more recent updates that let you adjust mission length for a certain time or a certain distance.

I've done it saying that I wanted the mission to last 30 minutes and it didn't care that I was travelling a lot faster than I could while running.

(one point that I don't know-- I don't know how the Zombie chases would work, but I don't use the chases generally)

Best answer: I used the zombie chase ONCE. It just wants you to pick up your speed by like 20% or something, so if you're using the GPS tracking it'll register that like normal. Also if the zombie catches you, nothing really happens; you just drop some loot. But I found the "beep - beep - beep beep beepbeepbeep" so stressful/effective that I turned it off after the first time.
