This video is amazing, and shows the ingenuitely people have in trying to stretch seasonal businesses in new ways. 

So, when an Austrian ski resort is short of snow, what to do? Why not build a high-speed, 3-mile single-rail rollercoaster in which nutty people sit on the equivalent of a bicycle seat and careen down a steep mountain? Makes sense to me. 

And having been to Mammoth and other Northern California ski resorts in summer and tasting more than my fair share of dust while mountain biking down the mountain, I'm issuing a callout: Build one of these puppies and I'll be one of your first customers. Hell, I'll even be a beta tester.
