Pretty much. Unclip one side and pedal the other. Switch. Repeat.

Stomp on the bug...
Wipe your feet...
Pull your foot out of the mud...
Kick the dog...

Your cadence will skyrocket right away so a harder gear will be better. You will find the cadence vs gear sweet spot and after a while will be able to spin at high cadence in a hard gear with one leg for good length of time. Another benefit is learning to pedal smoothly - you will see what I mean right away.

It is a real workout though. I should do some too.
