I think you have to focus on breathing. You sure do when you ride a bike. It is amazing how much you can manage your breathing, which then manages your heart rate. I also think that works in reverse as well.
I firmly believe in a heart monitor, which is a great measurement tools, especially as it relates to breathing.
Of course, I also agree with the other comments regarding previous excercise, diet and rest.
