STREETLUGE is a road-going version of the traditional winter sport of ice luge.
Streetluges are non-motorised and rely on the force of gravity as a means of power. On big mountain roads streetluges can reach speeds in excess of 80 mph and since they don't have any form of suspension and are only a fraction of an inch off the ground they provide the rider with a tremendous sensation of speed.
The action is often very close and plenty of bumping, drafting, drifting and speedwobbles go on... and the wipeouts are top. In fact there are few sports that offer such thrilling action for such a relatively small cash outlay.
