Frank,
I really think you're reaching here in terms of the motor skill required to pedal a bike effectively as well as the time needed to develop it.
During an earlier part of my life I trained and then worked as a commercial pilot. It only takes 40 hours of flight time to attain a private license and a mere 250 hours to obtain my commercial license. I was instructing others to fly with only just over 250 hours of flight time under my belt. After flying fixed wing aircraft for ~ 1000 hours it only took 40 hours of helicopter time to add a commercial helicopter rating. You may not know this but flying helicopters is incredibly different than fixed wing aircraft. Many of the skills developed flying fixed wing must be completely unlearned and in fact if used will result in a crash of your expensive and complicated helicopter. Despite this it only takes 40 hours of flight time in a helicopter to teach your body to do the correct pattern. In a Bell 47 you're using left wrist for throttle, left arm for collective pitch, right hand for cyclic control of bank angle as well as pitch angle and both feet on the pedals that control the tail rotor......and all of these in concert with the others. Flying a helicopter has been described as like patting your head, while rubbing your tummy, whilst balancing on a beach ball on one foot and holding a conversation. Me thinks pedaling is a bit less taxing
Since I only flew as a lowly bush pilot in Maine and Louisiana oil fields and then as an agricultural pilot let's talk about really skilled pilots like the Blue Angles. The minimum flight time requirement in order to fly with this elite group is 1200 hours. Some have a bit more time than this when entering but not usually very much. In the same vein, in order to instruct in jet aircraft in the military one only need have 500 hours of flight time. Based on the above, your 10,000 hours to highly develop a particular skill concept really doesn't wash with me.
YMMV,
Hugh
