I was wondering how many times everyone rode a certain ride or certain rides durning any given season.
For example I rode Raptor 142 times in the 2005 season.
Corkscrew 50 times in one day back in 2004. Of course, I think there are still plenty of members of the Gemini 100 hanging around here....
As for number of times in a season, I'd have to think about that one. *** Edited 1/22/2006 8:46:37 AM UTC by Ralph Wiggum***
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
I never really keep records of what I ride except for a very few..
The afforementioned Gemini 100 of course.. 100 rides in 10 hours.. No re-rides..
My 82 rides on Vertigo and finally the opening year of MF rides. 269 total the first year with 68 of them on a single day alone.
June 11th, 2001 - Gemini 100
VertiGo Rides - 82
R.I.P. Fright Zone, and Cyrus along with it.
wasnt that 68 during the sorely-missed Millennium Mania??

It's all about getting around the barrels, or over the fences, right leads, no faults, fastest time and looking pretty when done. What's so hard about that?
Little curious, can anyone on here lay claim to getting on all 67 rides in one day? I know you'd have to steal and/or have a kid, but I'm betting it can be done. *** Edited 1/22/2006 9:18:39 PM UTC by Fastball84***
Unpredictable weather, downtime, crowds, and those rides which adults cannot ride with or without children would make that goal impossible.
2007 - Top Thrill Dragster
2005 - Magnum XL-200/Camp Snoopy/Monster/Witches Wheel
I thought about trying to hit every major attraction (ie: not kiddy rides) last year but never got around to it. Maybe in 2006.... ;)
2007: Millennium Force, 2008: Millennium Force ATL, 2009: Top Thrill Dragster

It would not be impossible. Impossible doesnt exsist. Improbable...very much so. During an early season weekday, i could see someone getting a ride on everything but the kiddie rides. Espically if rained is mentioned in the area and doesn't actually come.
As for the records.... I have nothing impressive.
"Ive got the need, the need for speed!"
But he's saying all 67. There is no height at which you can ride every ride.
I know someone that at least attempted to ride all the rides he could ride in one day. I don't know if he finished it off, but he was pretty close.
I got a total of 50 maXair rides this past season. 29 of those (or was it 21? can't remember right now) came on Labor Day. For any of the maXair crew that was there on Labor Day and is reading this, does the name "maXarian Mike" rattle any brains?

Three things you need to fix anything in the universe: duct tape, WD-40, and a hammer. Duct tape if it moves and it shouldn't, WD-40 if it doesn't move and should, and the hammer as the last resort.
Rode Magnum 507x back in '02, then 301x in '03. Haven't done as many laps in the past two seasons as priorities have changed (24 laps in '05). Sometimes growing up is hard to do. :-\

Wow my record... would have to be THREE rides (in a row) on Gemini! I know, it may seem like a lot but its true I really did have that many. Oh and thats for the WHOLE season record as well. But I only been there three different times and all were one day trips.. I would go more if I could which in a few years I will. However I did happen to get 12 rides on Shivering Timbers at Michigans Adventure in one day, again not a lot but getting there.
[Wait I take that back... I rode Power Tower 4 times on my last trip!]
