bobsled ride

Frozen track thrill

A bobsled ride is a trip down an icy track in a bobsled—a narrow, steered sled that carries passengers at high speeds through banked curves.

The term applies both to competitive runs and to tourist attractions at winter resorts: We took a bobsled ride at the Olympic park.

Figuratively, any fast, twisting experience might be called a bobsled ride.
