Luge

Have you ever heard of the luge? If you haven't here's some facts. A luge can carry a person up to ninty miles per hour. The luge gloves are spiked at the fingertips. A transparent helmet allows the slider to see though the wind. The luge track is made out of artificial ice. I hope I taught you a lot about the luge.
