But pedaling on a treadmill make you fall over.

What the hell?

They're called rollers, and they're pretty easy to ride on.

[-] Malfeasant@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

I wouldn't say easy... But yeah, you don't just fall over.

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Is it possible for the bike to fall off the rollers, sending everything crashing into the nearest wall?

[-] Malfeasant@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

No, if you fall off the rollers, your wheels just stop. Bicycle wheels don't have anywhere near enough mass for their momentum alone to move your body.

I have heard that it is VERY hard to get started and then very quickly becomes thoughtlessly easy

Does it? I bet some weirdo on YouTube has done this.

[-] cordlesslamp@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago

you're absolutely right. I searched it before making that comment and there's one random dude who did exactly that, he even wondered himself if anyone has ever done that.

And pedaling in space makes you balance!

How the hell?

[-] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

No, you’d start spinning
