Luge event, awesome!I really enjoyed it. Facility was great, amazing speeds of up to 140km. Had my cow bell. And it was snowing!
It was hard not to think of Georgian luger, Nodar Kumaritashvili. Indian luger, Shiva Keshavan, was greeted to cheers of "Shiva, Shiva" after his race. Apparently, he is thrilled to be racing in Canada where he is warmly received by the Indo-Canadian community. Keshavan is compared to the Jamaican bobsleigh team that competed at the 1988 games and became a crowd favourite. He is part of a three-athlete delegation from India at the Vancouver 2010 Olympics.
