These snowless dry luges look like they’d be a great way to spend a day. You can race in groups, pass people, even crash and it appears that each location offers several courses to choose from.
Queenstown, NZ:
Sentosa Island, Singapore:
Mont Tremblant, Quebec City, Canada:
Canada Olympic Park, Calgary, AB:
Rotorua, NZ (crash!):
These have been around since 1966 but they’re new to me and added to my (ever-growing) bucket list.
