Are you scared of roller coasters
I want to see if there is a correlation between people on two wheels and roller coasters. When I went on them at Six Flags, people kept bitching about being scared. I almost fall asleep on them...

RE: Are you scared of roller coasters
Just got back from California yesterday. We took our bikes out there to ride around, and went to Six Flags Magic Mountain. "X" is the sickest coaster, followed by "Tatsu". Those are two aggressive coasters.
Though, I do prefer a good wooden coaster over a steel one any day. "The Boss" in Six Flags Mid America in St. Louis is the only coaster I can ride over and over and still get that gut-wrenching free-fall feeling every time.
Can't wait to get out to Cedar Point in Ohio to get on their coasters. The best coaster park in the world.

The only ones I don't like are those rickety old wooden bastards. There is one at Great Flags/Paramount/whatever it is called now, in Vacaville and another one I rode at the Santa Cruz boardwalk. I kept thinking it was going to break...[&:]

yeah fox you are crazy, i hate wooden roller coasters, they are always the roughest most jerkity ones out there. i am also terrified of heights and get a minor nervous feeling before riding new ones, but it doesnt stop me from getting on them.

I don't really care for them and never went out of my way to go on them. Like everything, I'll try just about anything once. I don't think that I'd get sick or anything, I just don't see the point...like smoking cigs.

Hey TheX, how in the #$#@%!@&* do you reride anything. Last time I was there I spent 2.5-3.5 hours in line for every coaster. Only bummer of the day.

RE: Are you scared of roller coasters
just got back from cedar point last week. i love coasters... the only thing that sucks is that top fuel dragster launch. 0-120mph in like 3 seconds is just borderline a little too ridiculous
