How Long Can Humans Survive in 1/6 th Gravity?

It might be simpler to build a velodrome. It doesn't need to rotate,
just have a circular track large enough and with the right angle for the
track.

Then crews could spend a couple hours a day riding a bike which would
not only be good for their body, but also generate some G forces that
the body would interpret as weight.

In a space station environment, this would require some secondary track
below the cycling track where some "dead weight" robot/vehicle would
race around as a counterweight for the cyclist at the other end of the
track.

Don't know about that idea. in a way it would be ironic if our very nature
and design make it impossible to come back to earth after a long duration
trip. Maybe all this will need to wait till someone unravels the real nature
of mass and gravity.
