A cycling desk / Zwifting with a split keyboard

Love the idea!

My gym has stationary recumbent bikes -- I wonder if rigging up a keyboard to one of those would be better? If you don't need to put your upper body weight on handlebars, maybe it'll be easier to have a more traditional mouse/keyboard setup.

Won't be as cool though

Stationary recumbent bikes works great. I have little tray with mouse and trackball that I slide over my knees when cycling.

I use an AirDesk with a stationary recumbent bike:

It’s been life-changing!

I've seen people with small but wide desks placed between the handlebars and the seat of a stationary bike, with enough space to place a laptop. I suppose if you wanted you could also use a wall mounted display and place a keyboard and mouse on the desk.
