Riding a regular bike with a freewheel clutch is different from running by inertia.
The cool thing is that there is no inertia movement on the fixed gear, it is a non-inertia ride.
That's why riding a fixed gear is like running.
Of course, fixed gear can also be driven by inertia - this is when you put your feet on the pegs, and the pedals (connecting rods) rotate idly.
But this is not very interesting, as the ride itself on the fixed gear in inertia-free mode.
