Let us know how you like it. The only real difference I had to adapt to was learning not to try to coast -- something so natural when you are coming to a corner or to a stop sign. A few kicks of the pedal will learn ya.
But this is worth keeping in mind; if you should be standing and suddenly stop pedaling, the pedal may just kick you off the bike. It's never happened to me, thank God, but I've been alarmed more than once. Other than that, what you adapt to is largely (1) downhills and (2) what you have to adapt to anyway for ss freewheel, ie, planning ahead and pacing yourself.
