freewheeling
To "coast" in a manual-transmission car without being in gear, i.e. with the clutch pedal depressed or with the shifter in neutral. Widely used on hills and such to save gas, since it keeps your revs at idle speed while still moving.

freewheeler
A dude or chick who loves quadding but does not have a machine of his own; he therefore straps on a day-pack with basic supplies and heads out along da riding-trail, keeping his senses peeled for da much-loved "chorus of sweet music" droning/putt-putt din in the distance or the far-off headlights-glow of approaching ATVs and side-by-sides, and then asks to ride along with them.
I always make sure to leave at least a couple of empty seats in our trail-riding group (i.e., I stow our supply-duffels in the carriers and lash them on the roofs of our 4X4s instead of just setting them on the seats beside us), just in case we happen upon any freewheelers along our travels. ATV-ing is indeed an expensive hobby, and so I fully realize that not everyone who loves doing it can afford to own or rent equipment of their own, and so I like to share our fun with these other folks. And besides, "the more, the merrier".
