Strava shows the Apple watch indoor bike ride as just a ride and tags it as an indoor ride. Why does it not categorize the ride as a virtual ride just like Zwift and Fulgaz?

Hey ​@pbike,

In order to classify an activity under a virtual sport type, the activity must be originally recorded as a virtual activity using a supported virtual trainer or treadmill. Performing this action will ensure that your activity file uploaded to Strava has the correct sport type information included.
