Before I had even watched the Big Wheel video I was thinking of this...

Street Luge:

air time and a little carnage = a lot of fun...

Street Luge has been going for quite a few years in California. Very cool. I want to try this some day (and I just thought of a cool place around here to try it... hmmmmm... it's a good climb on the bicycle so probably not bad on a skateboard/luge thing...)

They used to do it on public roads with all the risk but it is now an organized sport and more fun can be had with the anti-automobile-splat removed from the risk factor with a closed-course event.

Highside, I had a good time racing mini-bikes again last year at the mini nationals, with your buddy Rob, (who's getting married soon) and even oldskool Superbike champ Steve Crevier came out to play.
"Zounds! Zorched by Zarches, Spaceman Spiff's crippled craft crashes on planet Plootarg!"

For Sale: Ninja 600 with parts bike, needs minor work, $30, no title... (GEE THAT DOESNT RING ANY WARNING BELLS DOES IT?)

No idea how I missed this, but since you're all in, and I'm in, and I probably weigh the most, I'll get to the bottom first!!! haha
