Bikes: 2008 Novara Randonee - love it. Previous bikes:Motobecane Mirage, 1972 Moto Grand Jubilee (my fave), Jackson Rake 16, 1983 C'dale ST500.

As you have the bike upside down all you have to do is substitute "lower" for upper in FB's note above. Your freehub is probably sticking for some reason. Test by unshipping the chain from the cogs in the rear and try to stop the freewheel. If you feel a lot of resistance that is the problem, if not, check the derailleur pulleys. Google clean (or lubricate) freehub.
