Enjoy the rides at Cedar Point for what they are!

There are many people out there who say, Mean Streak sucks, Iron Dragon is wimpy, Disaster Transport is stupid. 

My comment is, just enjoy the rides for what they are.  Not every ride can be a Millenium Force, but each and every ride has a certain flavor to it, so enjoy that flavor.  If every ride were like Millenium Force, then Cedar Point would sure be boring. 

Ditto!

I'm with you j.c. I LOVE iron dragon, disaster transport, corkscrew etc. I even love the flat rides like monster and troika. Personally I don't think a park would be a park without rides that are less technically advanced or aren't as thrilling.

For anyone who says Iron Dragon is wimpy...sure, it may not be as intense as the other coasters, but there are still people who love it! It was my second coaster (first suspended) and I'll always remember it.

The only reason MS gets so much attention is because it has the all the potential in the world to be such a great ride and everyone under the sun knows that.  People have had great rides on it and know how well it can run.  People complain about the high cost of maintaining a wooden coaster and 10,000 people in the amusement industry warned CP not to build it in the first place.

I agree entirely with you,Just Coasting. Without our support, these parks would not be building all these great rides!

I've learned to use constructive criticism. I can always have something good to say about any ride,no matter how bad it is.

There are a number of rides/attractions at Cedar Point that I don't have any interest in at all, However, there are people out there who probably love the exact rides that I dislike. Diversity and variety is a good thing. Cedar Point is able to please large numbers of people by having such a broad range of experiences for them to enjoy.

Just Coasting, I guess I'm a little confused...are you saying MF is boring? ;) j/k

Well actually Iron Dragon is the whimpiest of most of the Suspended coasters. The rest I can say are good for what they are.

You are the Weakest Link, Goodbye.

Without the brakes biting on the first leg of the ride, Iron Dragon isn't all that bad.  There's still no confusing ir with PKI's Top Gun, but it's better than you'd think.

But with them on...oh, my.  My sister called it a Sky Ride on steroids, and I'd have to agree.

My sentiments exactly, Just Coasting.

Different rides offer different thrills for different people.  I remember when I first started riding roller coasters and I liked the beastie at PKI.  Now I don't find it too interesting.  But the point is that I loved it and it was a thrill to me then.  Some people just aren't extreme all the time.

If there's bugs on your shirt, you had a good ride.

I love DT.
