a recipe for pedaling nirvana
1. get a fixed gear bicycle. around a 65" gear is good. at least one brake.
2. ride it for a month or two to get comfortable with it.
3. do some core work to anchor your pedal stroke at extreme cadences.
4. ride it two days in a row.
5. on day 2, do a couple short, hard, seated climbs at super low cadence followed by descents at super high cadence and recovery. work hard, but don't completely blow yourself up
6. as soon as possible after the last rep, find a flat, scenic, uninterrupted stretch of good pavement to spin your legs out.
voila, pedaling nirvana1. if you achieve it, you won't be able to tell if you're pedaling the bike or the bike is pedaling you. you will be moving fast but feel like you're effortlessly warming down. your legs will buzz.
