This has probably done before. I don't know. But yeah if you're ever looking for something new to try, and its winter, try iceboarding (as me and my friends call it)
What need is a old skimboard, a bike, a rope, and a stupid friend. Take the rope and tie to the bar underneath the saet of the bike. Hold onto the rope and let him pull you on the icy streets. For more fun try making ramps out of snow and doing tricks.
If your board isn't sliding well try running cold water on the bottom of the board to freeze it.
Warning: This maybe potentially dangerous.

Aside from the bad grammar and spelling mistakes...props to you for thinking of something pretty freakin' dumb and stupid...but then again, I suppose the same thing was said about Skeleton, Luge, Ski Jumping, BASE jumping, Bungee Jumping, and Snowboarding. So you're in good company.
Your idea is still rough around the edges, but go look at pix of Jake Burton's first boards or some of the old sleds they used for Skeleton. No one would even think about riding those things again. Screw what the other guys said, I say go for it!
I'm a lousy mountain biker but a few years ago I went to the NORBA finals...your ideas is no more crazy than the DH courses the bikers ride.
I've already picked out some potential ways to make the idea better...bike traction being #1. But I'll leave it to you to draw up the designs and get it to the patent office. You'll end up designing custom parts and accessories too, as well as specialty boards. You'll need machine tools and an investor.
I suggest you start taking some videos or even better, do your stuff in the press parking lot at Winter X-Games.
Good Luck!
