flying

Came across this rather safe playground equipment in QLD Austrlia while visiting The Walkers (Daniel's Sister and her Family).
Basically you get on and pedal really fast and pick up speed faster and faster. It is designed on an angle so that there is a real acceleration as you travel downhill. I had a go and it goes pretty fast. I think I was pulling 3g's. Or was that becasue there was pressure in my head that was causing a growing feeling of nausea.
Great fun to be had by all.

I almost forgot to note that on the round about thing closest is Tom (helmet was becasue he was riding a bike not because of the inherit hazard of riding a fast moving playground equipment) and Delenn (furthest). In the corner is Ian.
