Las Vegas knows how to get your heart pounding, and not just in the casino. If you're in the mood for an adrenaline rush, you've got several options. You can definitely find adventure on one of the Strip's thrill rides--you'll find rollercoasters, controlled free-falls, and other things that spin, dangle, or drop you. Just off the Strip, you can try skydiving indoors, or racing go-carts at 50 m.p.h. If you want to drive really fast, you can learn how to drive a race car or take an ATV tour through remote areas of the Mojave Desert--but if you like your adventure a little quieter, go rock climbing, hike, or rent a boat. Mountain bikers can experience an "Epic" trail ride, but if you'd rather zoom through the air, try a zipline. ~Photo courtesy of Rob Lucas at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ultrarob/3947225828 ~
