OK, so here's a form of racing I only learnt about today while wandering around YouTube.

Apparently, it's distinctly Australian. It's very fast, very dangerous, with the strong possibility of drowning. Sounds perfect.

Tinny racing. I feel like I should have known about it; maybe I did but forgot? I am old, after all.

This is 15 minutes of adrenaline along the Murray river and over some of the surrounding creeks.

The person up front (aka bow rider, swinger, hanger, sack-o-potatoes) would have to be insanely fit.
