An exercise bike with pedal rotation and hand and foot reach targets. Created from scratch in sketchup.

Animate in a minute.

1. Place character on the bike seat. rotate at hip to about a 45 degree angle towards the handle bar.

2. Open the edit motion layer tool and switch to the Reach Target Window. Attach the hands to the Lefthand/Righthand dummies. Attach the feet to the Leftfoot/Rightfoot dummies (under the left/right pedal subprops.

3. Adjust the characters back (using the edit motion layer tool) foward until the hand reach the handlebar. Close the hands on the handlebars.

4. Select the pedals subprop and then right click. Go to perform -> pedal1. The legs should now be animated. To achieve the results in this video I used the Direct Puppet on the chest region of the character and swayed gently back and forth in rythm with the legs pumping. Then puppeted the head to desired effects.
