Cyclists often do this when riding over minor bumps or train tracks. It would reduce the impact to the bike. | |

If it goes away when you stop pedalling, its related to the chain/transmission. If its always there when coasting then cause is more general. If the sound changes as you brake, it might be wheel/rim/brake related, or rotor if you have them. | |
