Dr. Kenneth Cooper once said that he had believed there was no difference between exercise riding a bicycle and exercise in a gym on an exercycle. His epiphany came when he realized that while riders often rode "another loop" or "took the long way", those on exercycles invariably bailed as soon as the timer dinged.

There are also real hazards and dangers involved in riding; I suggest an exercycle.
