They would differ from a bike in several ways but one in particular would be that they "jiggle your innards". According to a book I'm reading called "The Second Brain" (about the nerves controlling the GI system), such jiggling causes a flood of several neurotransmitters which could account for a lot.

That's a really good idea. I'd need to hold onto something, though, since my balance is bad. I checked and they make them with something to hold on to. They call it a stabilizer. Makes sense.
