One-legged training?

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

Just seeing what the thoughts out there were on one-legged pedal stroking (not that one, haha).  I went out for an easy 20 today and every 3/4 mile or so I would unclip one foot and practice "circling" with the clipped leg.  (About 30 per leg or so)  I don't know what good it is really, but hey, at least I got a laugh out of some old guy on the side of the road.  :)

It's an excellent way to refine and hone your pedal stroke. I do one-legged peddaling every now-and-then just to remind my legs how to pedal in circles instead of squares.
and yeah, you do get strange looks from non-cyclists.

It can be good for rehab as well!  But watch you don't do too much.
