Leibowitz, Flo
Truth is stranger than...There was an alleycat here a couple of months ago where you had to go up and down the stairs of a 4-story parking garage. It was walked or run, not ridden :), but I understood that some folks carried their bikes the whole way rather than lose time locking and unlocking.

I love it. I do think it would be fun!
...And the narrow halls/stairways would slowly transform into a "Bobsled

and Splinter talking about how that tweak against the wall might have cost
the rider/slider up to a full second that will need to be made up after
exiting the structure/run.
