Pulse n glide on a bicycle does work.
After a particularly fast stretch of road i can exhaust myself to nearly requiring a rest stop, but when i pulse and glide (coast and pedal) i can reduce my heart rate and breathing back to a rate i can cruise with. I think most of us pulse n glide on our bikes without realizing it. I coast quite a lot when resting on the fly.
