When you first start the cycle, you do work to add kinetic energy to it, which moves if forward, but you are also adding rotational energy to the wheels. Once you are at the desired speed, you only need to overcome frictional forces from air and friction losses in the gears and bearings of the bicycle. If you stop pedaling, the rotational energy of the wheels can help keep it going, for a little while. If you suspend a wheel, and get it spinning, it can spin for a while without any additional input. It takes energy to stop it (some comes from the friction in the bearings to gradually slow it down, and some from the air).

When performing range of motion exercise each joint needing exercise should be put through the range of motion procedure a minimum of how many times?

Each joint needing exercise should ideally be put through the range of motion procedure a minimum of 5 to 10 times per session. This repetition helps to improve flexibility, maintain joint function, and enhance circulation. It's important to perform the exercises gently and within a comfortable range to avoid injury.
