Bobsledding in Utah Olympic Park

Posted by Peter Brady on Mon 4th December 2006 at 06:00 AM, Filed in Adventure HolidaysAlternative DestinationsWinter Trips

Ever fancied trying your hand at one of those dangerous looking winter Olympic Sports? If you have, a Bobsledding trip to Utah is a must.

For a reasonable $200 ($108) you can slip your way upto 130 km/h with an experienced driver. Just don’t expect to take any part in actually controlling the thing!

Apparently it makes a roller coaster ride seem pretty tame. It’s hardly surprising when you’re likely to be experiencing 4 G’s of force and the equivalent of a 40-storey drop in less than a minute on a four person public passenger bobsled ride.  An experienced driver takes three passengers down the entire length of the Olympic bobsled track. Participants must be 16 years of age and older.

Awesome!!!
