Not in a day, that would be a record (ala Kenny Mayne for those SportsCenter fans.)Today I hit 100 on the year.
*Dan, Jerry and other's laugh at my count in the background*
I arrived late at about 6pm, hit Blue Stack and Dorkscrew real quick. Waited in my longest Magnum line of the year (30 minutes) then ride Gemini again and again and again and, well you know. I like Gemini! Lets do a Gemini 150 in July :).
Later went to Mean Streak, and I know Rob and Dan saw Dave at entrance this morning and the poor guy was STILL there! Hit Mine Ride then back to Gemini to ride.
Then some Magnum action at twilight time. Ejector seat on almost every one, but twice the single rider for the front was given out, so I went. A nice breeze at my back made for some good rides.
After my 100th on Magnum at around 9:55, I walked briskly over to Millennium Force, knowing that they now close the line 8 minutes late over there! So at about 10:07, I got it line. I was not planning on having the last train of the night but nobody walked in behind me. It kind of neat looking behind my back and seeing nobody there.
5-1R is my new apartment number the way. Got that lovely seat for maybe the 30th time this year for another great ride. Millie is back in midseason form!
Saw Lot's of GTTP crew members today, Dave on Mean Streak, Natalie on Mine Ride, Corey and Matt on Magnum, and Kim on Millennium Force.
Did I mention I love Gemini! I can't go a day without it now :)

2001 Force Count-48
I honked at you Joe as I came around permimeter road (as I always do to MF as I leave the park).. I looked over and saw the last riders just hitting the last queue line before the ramp, with a ride-op behind you sweeping away...
-------------
MF 2000 - 269 laps
MF 2001 - 73 laps as of (6/9/01)
June 11th, 2001 - Gemini 100
Hehehe.
Some people honk to a neighbor watering the lawn while driving down happy street. Other people honk to a person in line for Millennium Force while driving down perimeter road.
At that moment I was probably commenting to the op that the GP are filthy pigs. There had to be 100 pop bottles just laying in the queues. Like they can;t find one of the 100 garbage can in the queue too!
