I'm deathly afraid of heights. I also hate it when i'm not in control, which combined is why I hate roller coasters. But man oh man, I would ride this! I love the idea!

Imagine if they modeled the track off the line taken by the MotoGP guys on a really twisted track. The lean alone would be worth the price of admission.

This on the other hand may be on to something. Although again, just being strapped onto the bike solid just doesn't sound right. Half of the fun of riding a bike hard on the track is the way you move your body in concert with the bike.

True, true, though I will gladly trade mobility with being safely held at angles I am incapable of doing on my own, like parallel to the ground or even a corkscrew roll.
