+
+Although this model can be rotated in 3-D space it really is just a saggital
+plane pedaling model with only a few muscles in each leg. The beauty of
+pedaling is that it is one of the few cases of biomechanics that can be modeled
+reasonably on two dimensions only.
+
+The 2-D legs are supplemented with models of the bike frame, crank, and
+wheels.
+
+You can do lots of interesting stuff with this model:
+
+- Investigate the influence of the bicycle design
+- Change riding parameters sich as cadence and output power
+- Separate internal work for acceleraton of body segments
+
+from external work on the crank.
