Zwift.com provides a VR for riding bikes on trainers. There are many times I'd love to "relive" the biking experience after the fact. For example, I was dying on a hill one day. I went to work the next day to download open source DEMs and see just how bad that hill really was. Zwift rides can be downloaded in *.fit files.

I'm also a dedicated zwifter and even if it would be nice for FME to have native support for *fit files you can bridge this barrier right now if you convert the *.fit files to *.gpx with e.g. GPSbabel which can be run from the command line with the SystemCaller transformer.

So if you read the *.fit file with the "Directory and File Pathnames" reader, pass it to a SystemCaller to convert to GPX and then read it with a FeatureReader transformer you'll get the data into FME.
