ABSTRACT:
The present invention helps make the use of indoor sporting equipment fun and thereby promotes the use of such equipment and makes people more interested in exercising. Briefly, the present invention is an improved design for an exercise bicycle which has more than one function. The present invention promotes exercise and training, improves both active and passive coordination of leg muscle reaction, and aids in establishing relationships between people. The present invention includes a stationary frame attached to which is a first seat which is movable between at least an upright position and a reclined position. A pedal assembly is rotatably journalled to the frame, and a frictional fly wheel assembly is coupled to the pedal assembly and offers resistance to the rotation of the pedal assembly. An electro-mechanical assembly (e.g., a dynamotor, a generator or the like) is coupled to the pedal assembly to rotate the pedal assembly or to generate electrical power in response to manual rotation of the pedal assembly at the selection of a user. A manual operational reaction training device is provided to help the user train himself or herself to react. An auxiliary seat is provided on the same frame facing and opposing the first seat to permit another person to participate in the exercise.
