Well, no. What we do is a drill where we pedal at 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, then full speed for one mile, ditch the bike, run about 50 feet, get on target, then shoot. Your muscles, legs arms and core, take a few seconds to adjust, you have adrenaline and lactic acid in your muscles. You would be amazed at how many of the guys fell the few steps after ditching the bike and became very inaccurate. We all shot a little group to begin with to compare. As expected, accuracy decreased (and we were shooting stationary targets at only about 15 yards) when speed increased, but *everyone* was more inaccurate (some more than others) at even 1/4 power for a mile on the bike.
